I was curious and wanted to know what you all thought about leaving active duty and going to full time REI?

Let me know if you'd like for me to get you set up on that.As for meetups, a few other local BP members (Tim Gordon) and I host a free event each month that meets at an active investment property and reviews the pertinent details of the deal and helps t explain numerous facets of REI.

Real estate is one of the last great free-market environments. everything is negotiable, and some providers are better than others, meaning they offer more complete/sophisticated service and response, wider marketing exposure, etc.I compete routinely against both higher than 5% and lower than 10% management rates and anywhere from one month's rent for a leasing fee, to half that. 

I did 6 active, 4 reserve and hubby just hit 24 years, before dropping retirement papers a month ago.  

My local MSL listing service has multis even above 4 units.

I am planning to buy and hold for 10 years and sell it for my child education and my retirement.Or if I hav the finance increase the value by building a mini commercial complex like McDonald,postal service,petrol station,etc,The location is a issue now.Either I should buy in urban or rural area.If you need any other additional info please let me know.Tonnes of appreciation

One of the pieces of work included was a complete rewiring of the house to remove the active knob & tube system.

Hello all,This is a first time post for me; I have been an active flipper/new build investor in the Twin Cities metro for a few years.

If you're not unlicensed, I still view it as unethical and there's the possibility the homeowner could wind up owing the Realtor the commission they agreed upon when initially signing a contract if they sell the property to you.Once their contract has expired, the homeowner is fair game, and then you should actively pursue them if you're interested in putting something together. 

It took me over a year to get my second property, and now I am actively looking for a third just a few months after buying my second.
