That generated 660k in gross commissions for myself and since I owned the brokerage I just paid my assistants.. was a very good year..LOLI could have sold nothing and lost 50k I paid up front for the room the food the advertising the radio adds.. the free tickets to the Rolling Stones  etc etc. 

My wife and I seriously considered skipping our plane flight back to Maine at this point and staying in Hawaii.

It makes sense to be cautious when committing to a big ticket, illiquid investment in any market environment.

Liz, For your first investment, this house seems like a big ticket item.  

But over the next 6 weeks, I'd like to get down to "runway level" as much as possible from afar.I priced tickets today, so I'd like to set a date for the trip and really have my @#$* together when I get there.

I used to get accused of "picking nickels out of horse**** while wearing boxing gloves" by some of my "smart" (ie;employed by Fortune 100 employer) friends.I always told them; "I get love at home, I do this for MONEY".I once met a guy on a SFO-DFW flight who was making his monthly trip to the Dallas area to "manage" his rental properties.

(The roof is the biggest ticket item on the list).
