I don't see real estates doing that consistently, there are always bad days regardless.

I also like to believe I do work above and beyond on a consistent basis, and keep a personal self-check by asking myself: am I providing value to the company?

My list is a mix and consist of delinquent tax payers and home with equity.Please share your success and what you have found that works.

I have invested in other things before, but I quickly realized real estate gives a more consistent return on investment compared with other strategies. 

Are total debt consists of 2 mortgages totaling 250k in which the rental income made covers monthly payments.

As a Realtor, I would set up a prospective buyer with a low credit score or other credit issues with a mortgage broker whom I consistently worked with and they would meet with them and get them on a path to become finance-able even if it was a 12 month of longer outlook.

My future portfolio will consist of residential and commercial properties and I am always seeking advice from folks who are wiser than I.

We have to be consistent across the board and given the hundreds of new profile photos uploaded daily, the team simply can't make exceptions.  

Most people in life are simply not producers and are not capable of delivering value on a consistent basis.
