@Ben Morand for agent business, I think Miracle Morning for Real Estate Agents by Hal Elrod and then 7L: The Seven Levels of Communication by Michael Maher are the best ways to launch without spending any money.

Otherwise, people with anxiety often lose out on a lot of money, or lose all their money.I will do my research from about 8 pm until 1 in the morning for several months and look at a thousand properties because in the evenings is the only time I get to focus without being interrupted.Be patient and wait like analligator.

On the MLS, you start by looking for Back on Market properties every morning.

Good morning everyone!

Good morning sir.  

@Jo-Ann Lapin I was just looking up hard money lenders this morning.

I’ve told a few of the realtors that i would like to be an assistant or even just someone who can bring them coffee in the mornings and pick their brains.  

It could also be that some of the agents that you’ve worked with do not really understand investment properties, they don’t understand the numbers that go into what would make a good buy and hold or a good flight.

LAX is worse than the national average because of its large portion of international flights.

While we do not have a lot of cash on hand that we can use right now (around $30k), we would qualify for at least a $80k HELOC, and I would also not be opposed to loaning against my 401k as I have maxed that out every year since I entered the work-force after college (10 years ago).I'm continuing to read these forums and just started listening to the podcasts this morning.
