Seems like yesterday.Anyway, I specialize in pre-foreclosures, have closed 100+ short sales with many lenders, done some rehabbing and a lot of wholesaling and flips.I am thinking of retirement now and so am really focusing on buy and hold, with an equal balance of building cash flow.I am constantly learning new strategies and am driven by anything that empowers me in my real estate business but personal life as well.

(Background: I'm a buy and hold guy, not a lender..so this was my first "exposure")The deal: Person "A" is moving here to work in Factory "B".

You always have to separate things that you "like" ... deals that you are emotionally driven too, and be able to walk away.  

I see the value in both points, though I am more quantitatively driven myself.

However, there were 2 things that enabled me & those I assisted to expand faster & a heck of a lot more efficiently.1) We all know that our RE equity earns nothing cuz RE is totally market value driven; it could care less how much money you have in it.

It's near the airport so I've only really driven around it.

Ironically enough, I work for Wells Fargo in the foreclosure department and am around bankers all day – I don’t want to talk with them on the phone too, haha.I have some good connections here at the bank and a TON of motivation which is helping my marketing campaign go very well.

Housing demand is driven greatly by the creations of households.
