I manage everything myself, with employees ive brought on, I help others with buy and hold acquisition .....coincidentally, ive seen your name on some listings and thought my childhood friends mother was a real estate agent.

id like to help this person above , who clearly suffers from know it all disease (frequently diagnosed, usually originating from childhood insecurity) with reality....defensiveness at the audacity of being challenged much?

She absolutely loves where she spent her childhood and wants to raise our children there...so I must keep her happy and move back.

I feel that having access to short term rentals for brides/bridesmaids/grooms/families is a whole other area that we can grow into. 

I am in the process of acquiring an SFH next door to my childhood home.

But what do I know, I am a northerner through and through with not even a childhood story to tell...

I'd love to explain more about my childhood and how I've always wanted to become a business man but that'd make this first post extremely long and boring.

I will also be doing some heavy lifting myself by helping a long-time childhood friend fix-and-flip a few houses since I have construction experience. 

Don't expect to be coddled.4) A good agent has connections... from City Hall to the Kiwanis Club to Donald Trumps favorite restaurant maitré D.5) A good agent can spot a buyer by their shoes.6) A good agent won't open their mouth to you without pressing a business card into your palm and reminding you that they are still waiting for your 32 year old son to move his new bride into "proper" accomodations.7) A good agent will have a well-equipped black car waiting outside for you on discovery days.8) A good agent will be well dressed and well informed.

Stanley's theory was that the Betas spent their childhood studying and working, and never had time for the extensive courtship rituals the Alphas had, never had the exposure to quality male role models they would have needed to develop the skills necessary to picking a good spouse.I firmly believe the same is true for men.
