A friend of mine recommended this site after we had a discussion about how ripe the local market is and I've been hooked on the podcasts in recent weeks and am soon to be equally engaged on the forums, as well as, reading the blog posts. 

This has nothing to do with the seller......other than having a week listing agent who knows many agents won’t work at this level at 3%.This is the Buyer agent simply saying.....it’s not worth my time to do a deal for less than a $1500 gross commission....so if you want ME to represent you, then you have to make up the difference.

They do not tend to like working with newer buyers needing tons of help buying smaller properties for a lower commission check.If you can be more descriptive such as your net worth and liquidity, annual income from job or business, total global cash flow, asset type, deal size, LTV with amount you are looking to put down, area, cap rate expected, fully stabilized or value add,etc.All of these things a good commercial broker will KEY in on to see if what you are wanting to do is readily available or you are looking for a needle in a haystack or wild goose chase type thing.If you are looking to find above market cap rates there are REIT's, pension funds, insurance companies that buy hundreds of millions a year in properties that I can call to purchase in 3 to 4 weeks close all cash.

Hey guys and gals,I just thought I post this and ask if anyone was interested in meeting up and connecting through a pick-up game of ultimate frisbee during the week or on a weekend.

Eviction takes 3-4 weeks from the filing period.

It has a 50%-plus contact rate, which I've (anecdotally) found often indicates it'll be rented in 2 weeks or less.I think you're right to shoot high initially, but "Semper Gumby," especially with the start of the school year bearing down. 

Let’s chat sometime this week when your available.

I believe high demand will continue in the future and vacancy will be limited to less than a month (in 5 years of ownership and 4 tenants, turnover vacancy has ranged from overnight, to 1 week).  

I am closing next week and will have a tenant in no later than Sept 1, sooner if possible. 

Got a question I (thankfully) haven't had to deal with before.Got a six-unit complex in Weatherford, TX.
