Lead gen in the morning, and set appointments in the afternoon, but you will not be doing it full time so I don't think this will apply.3.taking listings will give you more control over your time, but since you are just looking to be part time, your daily interactions with people should bring in a few deals a year. 4.I use liondesk as my CRM

I hope to get a look at her interaction with the seller and contract.

Live in MA and looking to invest mostly in Suffolk and Middlesex County.Looking to start building my team and to interact a learn more about investing.

You'll want to prepare for at least a month of vacancy each year going forward. 8-10% vacancy rate is common. but a roof/hvac/water heater will still need to be replaced in x amount of years and you have the ability to determine remaining life left in all of these items and divide the replacement cost and divide by remaining years to establish these anticipated costs in your calculations. they are real will appear eventually... also in 10 years, you might not want to be managing 20 units yourself and if you account for them now with a management fee, you'll prove they still work management or no management.

But I do learn loads of stuff while I am reading and interacting here on the forums, so it counts???

I can't wait to read the posts, interact with some of you investors at all levels, and learn as much as I can.A little about me and why I'm here...I'm 32, single, and a full time military member who's tired of the grind and playing the games with less than optimal returns in terms of compensation and quality of life, so I'll be looking to get out at the end of my current contract in 2 years.  

From what I could understand on the county site it seems to me that:You must give a deposit 5% of your anticipated highest bid prior to bidding to gain entry to the bidding.You are not given any inspection or financing contingencies.You must pay the remainder of your bid by 4PM the day of the sale.The sale is not complete until about 11 days later when you get the deed.Please let me know if that is all correct and if there is something else I should know about the process. 

You can learn a lot by just reading and interacting. 

You then interact with the agent and call out properties you like that are showing up.

Look forward to interacting with you here on BP.
