I've seen Realtors just stick one photo in the MLS, no description, bare minimum information.

If that's not possible with your schedule, be sure to conduct a thorough due diligence and use a property inspector as a bare minimum.If you find a "great deal" near where you live, then check that out first if it makes you feel more comfortable.

I swear I studied a ton and even paid extra for a practice class, and I barely recognized a single question on it!

There is only 2 of us in the 1200sq ft house and it has been staged leaving only complementary furnishings and the bare minimum we need for day to day but that stays hidden away even though we have yet to have a single person enter the door.

My first reaction is $7,000 is barely enough $$$ to make them pick up the phone and discuss with you.

There's value for everyone -- and participating brings deals, opportunities, knowledge, and friends.If you're not taking your business to the next level by engaging offline (phone, skype, personal meetings) with people you meet on the site, you're missing out as well.

I know some of these question might sound dumb to some please bare with me.

We had one old codger who was very set in his ways (he had been in the building for years before we bought it), we offered him discounted rent ($25/mnth) for one year if he participated in the trial.

They need the bare bones details.

There is no benefit to you to participate in a short sale.
