I am thinking to ask to follow and learn from her when she goes out and shows listings and interact with potential buyers/sellers.

Most investors would not have the $70,000 plus, extra cash for an extraordinary down payment.New investors must really run all the numbers 🔃

I'd follow up any conversation with an email or written letter summarizing the interaction, some written proof of the dispute and attempts to resolve it in case they do file a lien. 

I'm an avid reader, and am always really inspired by individuals who live outside of the norm, take full responsibility for their lives, and live extraordinary lives of purpose. 

David and I met through interacting on the forums.

It’s a 1,494 sq ft 3 bed 2 bath that’s been listed for just over 50 days and all offers and counteroffers are through the banks interface, so there’s no human interaction for any of this which is a little unfortunate. 

Tenant B: When I stopped by after closing and tried to change the lock on the front door (old landlord didn't have keys) they were put off and told me they owned the lockset and nobody had a key but them - I didn't change the lock but took a copy of the key - but it was an odd interaction.

@Greg H. i am an advocate for fair interactions wheter with tenants, customers, landlord, friends, etc. 

@Martin Vehlow is correct, they'll get a commission on any on market deals you do together.A few other incentives:- refer them business: in my marketing for off market deals I interact with a lot of folks who want to sell, but not at a discount that makes sense for me as an investment.

I have been listening to Bigger Pockets Podcasts recently and keep hearing over and over again how interactive and helpful the community is for BP.
