And I'm usually the first person the attorney calls when s/he has a client with such a situation and wants "insider" legal expertise in dealing with the other side, namely lenders, loan servicers and foreclosure trustees.

I kinda got "thrown" right into the deep end.I launched a career in real estate recently and I landed a client who is selling a commercial unit, so I have to swim or sink.

Here is a comment a client made, His company was going out of business, he got a call from a company who buy use furniture, first question they ask, "Are they from Ikea?"

Since I am a commercial loan broker my lenders that I use for my clients will now fund work for me as well.

The client specifically told me he wants in excess of 20k down to make it worthwhile to hold a note.

As to the other post to call and get a comp check, most appraisers will do this for there good clients few will give you the time of day if you just call at random looking to waste there time.

An agent wants to get paid, but wants there client to be happy and a repeat customer as well.

I also invest in stocks, commodities, and foreign exchange.

I am a builder/developer that has a client that needs financing.

when you try and tell your friends how funny this thread is and they blankly stare as if you're speaking a foreign language.
