I have spoken with my rep there on numerous times and have visited the offices once as well and have never found anything suspect in my dealings with them.

Then I can remove the suspected non-comparable.

I suspect you're going to have to let the one go and write it up to a learning experience.  

It won't be immediate, but it will happen eventually.I suspect anyone currently brokering real estate is going to complete their career just fine.  

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. 

I suspect you'll do just fine.Once you've got the GED under your belt and some sort of part-time job, RUN to your nearest community college and enroll in an associate's degree program.

I suspect these are portfolio loans. 

Ummm... that's really probably rather tricky, legally... the problem is, once a human being dies, his entire existence is folded into an entity called "his estate"... that includes all his debts and responsibilities... so, for example, I would suspect that the only entity which could legally deal with a change in the value of the "estate" (i.e., any addition or reduction of value) would be the "executor" of the "estate", whoever that might be.

Currently I have a cheaper 3-piece tub surround in each unit but I'm having issues with the caulk peeling off and it's very suspect to mildew and growing some mold.

What I have that is 2 story hasn't had any trouble renting, but the neighborhood is good, the house is nice, etc and I suspect that's a bigger factor.
