When finance calculators came out, some used wrong formulas and they were very close but not correct and they had to be tested against a known calculator to ensure we got the same information.Granted, there is no really accurate gyration to go through to estimate rehabs, I suspect after doing 25 jobs or so, many will leave the gadgets behind as they will be close enough from just walking through, knowing where they'll be.Not trying to kill the fun, just saying people need to learn what's behind the curtain. :)

I suspect that this will increase over the next few years, as so little new product has been built since 2007, and that pent up demand will support spec building in more and more areas.

I suspect that the technology will shortly be making a difference, but not with entirely printed homes.

I was suspecting that she was not walking the dog, as the apartment began to smell like the dog was going in the apartment.

Hi Mark,Our company just "bought" a broker to come on board in house.We re paying a monthly fee for his services.He is an older gentleman and will be very passive and just guide us.The fees are much much lower than what your friend offered you.We are just using his brokerage license for property management tho.Thanks Having a broker as a "secretary" of your C or S Corp helps and non licensed real estate investor doing wholesaling, sub2, wraps, retailing, installment sales, lease option assignments etc.Also having an attorney knowledgeable about the Real Estate Brokerage Law in their state, especially in OH and FL.I suspect there are more to come.When credit is tight, and home sales are low, licensed brokers want less competition.
