Found a really good real estate investor mentor that is available to the public.

Over the last several months I've been searching all public listings, talking with agents, and driving around looking for the right deal.

What you are referring to is a public adjuster.A public adjuster is a consultant you hire to represent you to the insurance company.

She seemed completely legit so I agreed to meet with her (in a public place) to discuss a deal.

All this is public records for you to verify as the consumer.

They mentioned that one of the homes prices was negotiable.Once I got off the phone, I did some research and was able to locate public records on how much they actually paid for the homes.

Such projects can add to the community tax base, provide jobs, create business, increase housing inventory or provide some public benefit.

So the total liabilities to employee a person is not only paying them their income, but also to match their FICA, among lots of other things.http://www.irs.gov/publications/p15/ar02.html#en_US_2015_publink1000202402(See Section 9 or Publication 15)Sorry, @Vicki Gleitz we are off the subject. :-)

Also, the tenants expect that the units are fully furnished.If you are buying a commercial property, than you will need a public notary, in Romania, they act as an attorney in the real estate purchases.

If you want to target the general public, like 100 times more prospects, then the higher price with repairs made, since repairs will likely be required to close financing.
