Ended up knowing one of the owners from way back when (high school) and they did the rest.

Not anywhere near as interesting as your first texts implied.Call me old school if you want, but I still order an abstract of title.

Anyways all joking aside I have just left school and have been lucky enough to hook up with a guy in Houston who is mentoring me and helping me through the process.

I come from a town with only 1 school district, so it never occurred to me.

There are two schools of thought on that: Never sell anything, because over time, the mortgage will be paid off and appreciation will continue to happen.

I am a recent college graduate looking to jump into real estate at full boar.

If you find another guy who will take it off your hands for more then great if not you should be there at the closing table with your own money.If some of you guys who do not know for sure that they can find an end buyer and do not have their own money to close on the house themselves want to sell real estate so bad why don't you go to school and get licensed as an Agent and be up front with these people?

Spend time getting to know where the schools, parks, restaurants, etc are.

In 2007 I decided to go back to school and became a Paramedic, I loved the job but found I couldn't balance OK pay with acceptable work conditions.

Desirable neighborhood with great schools.
