I pride myself on being there for my clients 24/7 (respectfully of course, we Realtors do need our family time).My past clients have been happy with my "turn around time" when making offers and keeping the sellers agent on track and keeping the transaction on pace.

Then put the forms for buying in one folder and selling in another folder so that you can review them before going to meet a client.

Properties in Bend, Salem, Eugene, and Portland + surrounding areas are ones to strongly consider.

Bigger Pockets is lacking in strong resources for real estate ventures that succeed.

I wondered why the City of South Bend would hire an out of town company for the study until I looked at their national client list which includes over 450 reports for builders, developers, cities, non-profits, planners, investors, lenders, small companies and development subsidiaries of several Fortune 100 companies.You can read the report here https://www.southbendin.gov/sites/default/files/fi...The report is mainly about the residential market potential of downtown South Bend but the gist of it as it relates to your question is that on page 5 it states that approximately 60% of the households in the entire City of South Bend are owner occupied and 40% are tenant occupied.The US Census Bureau data confirms this with their latest data showing appx 59% owner occupants and 41% tenant occupied here:  https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/table/PST045215/...

I'd guess rents will remain strong.

i got a large 3 page brochure from one company, it had good color & gave examples of their recent properties & quotes from clients as well.

An agent called me today and she has two clients who need a place to build a small factory.

Put yourself in the shoes of being your future client.

Is that too strong out the gate?
