Where are some good sources of information to lookup Oceanfront Property Values for the past 10 and 5 years.Especially CA, FL, East Coast and Texas?

In that case maybe you mean a CA license.

so thatll help me a lot with visits, searching for interesting places, etc.

It almost seems as if some of you guys are saying that you do a lot of your negotiating on the phone before you even visit the sellers in person.

Just ask anyone that's had to help with evictions on a few crack houses; Or having to visit a property once a week and make maintenance and utility payments for 4 months before ever listing the property.When you make your offer directly to the bank or asset manager, that offer is sent back to the listing agent; in some cases (very few), this act can cause the agent to be looked upon in a poor light.
