I was worried for a minute when the county mailed a survey to me asking how I felt about STR’s, but now that the review of their system is over, I feel confident that they won’t make any more major changes here for a while.

They can’t review the “hot” deal their broker just sent them because they’re too busy categorizing emails in color coded category’; they can’t attend the on line networking session because they need to switch over to a more detailed CRM system; they can’t visit the property going up for auction because their scheduled weekly garage cleaning is running overtime…..The Educator – This person never feels they have enough knowledge, experience or education to properly evaluate an investment.

Any questions, feel free to reach me, David Page, Executive Director of the REIA, at [email protected]. 

It's also totally fine to hop around from broker to broker if you feel like you're out of a shared runway. 

I feel like I live my life in spreadsheets, so I’d be happy to look at whatever you’re willing to share.

Feels like a weak position for them. 

Hi @Jessica Franco,I am quickly approaching the purchase of my first rental apartment in Johannesburg - once I've signed the OTP, I will update you on my progress here and let you know what I've found and give you a brief deal breakdown that will hopefully assist you in one way or another :) If I get caught up in it all and forget, feel free to drop me a reminder or follow up in my inbox (or here).Cheers!

Sometimes you feel more comfortable putting a face to a name, but I think you can be very well served and receive a quality product by just talking over email or the phone just fine.

One of my considerations is to further improve the value by taking a renovation loan, however I'm concerned because of the neighborhood values that investing more money into the home won't net me much profit whether I sell or rent.I feel a little stuck here and I don't want to fall to my limited knowledge, so I'm here reaching out for some guidance.Thank you in advance for any advice or support. 

Feel free to send me a message, I would be happy to pass along their information.
