How far do y'all drive to get to your office? 

Want contractor to walk through it with them, create a reno budget (which, again, takes 3-5 hours to do properly  - even a "ballpark" takes a couple hours out of a day to drive out there, go through the house with you, and do a quick & dirty ballpark.).

I would recommend interview few brokerages talk to other realtors and join a brokerage that is offering some sort of training.

For those that can't get into the statistics, I think it's a local decision and based on those increases is what will drive your local market.

I've been driving around a good bit trying to learn my "farming area" and I've learned two things, which I'm not sure if it's good or bad?

There doesn't seem to be anything on the MLS that works for me at this time, so I've been driving around in the neighborhood I really like, and finding prospective properties.Let me remind you that I'm a newb at this.

My name is Jeremy Swyers and I’m new to real estate investing.I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit but never had the drive to actually become one.

I would like a bank that charges very little/nothing for closing/underwriting and is ok with broker opinion drive by desktop appraisal...

I'm too conservative to buy blind but if I did I would estimate repairs for worse case scenario and I would drive by the property, possibly try to take a peak and talk to the neighbors. 5) costs I can think of; closing costs, repairs, holding costs such and taxes.

We offer rei training and coaching plus do monthly trainings in tidewater.
