Instead they don't list it and take it to their buddy buyers for the full commission??

A buddy of mine who is buying houses in Eau Claire is going to get first look.On the down side I just had another lead from a bandit sign in Chippewa Falls & didn't want to take the time to babysit the owners.

That is why I hate it.Most importantly and no offense to your buddy helping you out.NEVER "just" listen to anyone blindly to do DMM or anything this important really.Also chances are they are not in your market so its risky to have someone else help.This DMM is way too expensive.

find leak fix, grab some buddies dig into some youtube videos and you can do the whole thing yourself I bet.

Originally posted by @Andrew Zannotti:@Jennifer Schelkopf this is a great post and I love seeing what people are doing.I started the year deployed with the goal of learning the out of state investor process while gone but I wasn't able to get anything under contract while gone.I made it home in mid October and me and a buddy that I was deployed with have tried to hit the ground running.We have duplex under contract that should close this week or next week.

My buddy (first eviction) was like, "Wow, this is awkward".

So, based on his buddy's advice (sounds familiar?)

They never read anything because "a buddy told them they heard its a good investment" only to find the buddy did not invest but heard from a biggerpockets post which was from the sponsor... 

And buddy, they are out there and a few are probably reading this post. 

You are doing good buddy.
