Laws prohibit the establishment of a "standard industry rate" in the truest sense of the word - it is considered price fixing.

I joined about a month ago looking for the good word on tax lien certificates in Baltimore, MD, and I am finally getting around to introducing myself.My name is Andy, and I am from the Baltimore area.

How do I word that/

Who is the bank that owns the REO and are there any seasoning requirements in other words are there any restrictions on flipping the contract and/or reselling the property.

Any words of advice?

This seems like such a great opportunity, I'm suprised that it's not sold out -- so I thought I'd spread the word here in case any locals are didn't know about it.Robyn Thompson is a friend of the group and she is speaking at Thursday's monthly meeting AND running a full day seminar on Saturday.

In other words I find the home, put the bid on it, win the bid (if luck holds out) Find a Seller, Pay for the Property then turn around and sell the Property to a motivated seller at a higher markup, is that about sums it up?

@Jonathan M. 4 Words my man: SKIN IN THE GAME!

Your post made me look it up on google and apparently if I had bothered to research how to remove these before drilling holes around it and trying to remove it (with the end result looking like a bazooka shot through my wall), I would have saved myself much anguish, frustration and choice words for the previous owner - this link may help - http://www.ehow.com/how_5607858_remove-molly-bolts-wall.htmlI guess I will try and remove the rest of those stinking blinds this weekend now that I know how!

@Hector Perez The way I have been doing is through presentations.My very first time in 2010 I raised $50k was at the REIA meeting where I represented my company, our business model, mission statement, investment opportunities (deals) that I have and in the pipeline, estimated profits shown in numbers backed by pictures of the property and lastly explain why we need to borrow and ROI.From there, one thing leads to another and the word got out.
