So to answer your question of how large do you need your list to be?

Also ask any questions you want and we'll try to answer.

Bartstop,I know this doesn't answer much of your question but to be direct, unless you can sell those houses you bought for $70k *today*, those appraisals aren't worth anything more than the paper they are written on.

I be glad to answer them all. 1.

There are so many questions to be answered before you can get an answer on that questoin

I need to find a serious player HML or a broker who can deliver quick answers.If you are a broker and can get me a quick answer, I'm all ears.thx

What you are asking is more than one post can answer.

and I've got a question that I'm hoping someone here with previous experience can help answer??

It's been a while since I've been on but you can always find good info and many answers on this forum.
