Both are in good shape and appears to need very little immediate work.

It appears there are a lot of differences in our approach to real estate investing between our countries and I am keen to learn all I can.

I came across an interesting Duplex that would appear to be cash flowing well however I was told that both units are occupied but have no lease or deposits.

There appears to be two lots, one with the house and one that is empty, the Smiths own both.  

It appeared as if he didn't remember them, but he seems intrigued.

Some freaking friends I got...You know what'll cheer me up, Josh - if I come on for 3rd podcast appearance before Burke.  

Lets put the shoe on the other foot what if it was your property would you want to be lied to. 

Appears by writing that this was after acquisition?  

NOW Let put the shoe on the other foot and see how it fits...Lets say you are a seller (which if you are an investor you will be a seller at some point) and you decide to or need to sell one of your properties so you contact the best agent in the area and ask them what your property is worth in the current market. ( by doing so you have established a fiduciary relationship with the agent. a relationship of  the highest trust)  The agent says that its worth 50,000 and you sign a listing agreement.  

There are many who ‘want’ to be like me; many who are ‘studying’ to be like me; and many more who would be like me, but are just waiting for ‘this opportunity to appear’ or ‘that circumstance to change’… At the end of the day, very few actually are like me.I have been very fortunate and blessed.
