But we basically followed David Greene's advice for finding a realtor in Long-Distance Real Estate Investing.Here's a summary of what we were looking for:* An agent who has experience being a landlord/investor and so already shares our perspective (looks for opportunity rather than curb appeal)* An agent who knows the Alexandria area well* An agent who doesn't mind showing us many houses and writing a bunch of lower offers* An agent who doesn't mind sharing their opinion about a property being wrong for us so we can move on to the next oneThere are many great meetups here.

Several things to contribute here: 1) Private Lenders with no credit experience emerge doing down payment and 100%/High LTV financing at the end of every cycle, 2) they're among the first to loose their shirts in every downturn, 3) although someone termed this type of lending "gator", it's not new, 4) the guy that coined it didn't get into real estate untill well after the last crash, 5) he has no real credit background or experience (he's never been a lender), 6) Google the guy's name and "looses professional license in AZ" to see what pops up, and finally 7) he's really effective at telling people what they want to hear, filling their heads full of hopes and dreams, getting them to buy his training, and his minios generally won't want to hear what a real, seasoned lending vet will try to tell them.

Currently occupied by tenants as well so need to minimize disruption.

I have a few of my higher priced ones in my personal name because you can have up to 10 conventional in your personal name and they have typically have lower rates, so might as well save them for the bigger ones.The majority are in LLC's. 

Rent rolls I spend a lot of time reviewing as well@Ronald Rohde, thank you - this will be a purchase of an existing property that was previously barren land.

The right property pretty much anywhere in LA can work well as a MTR.

The service has been excellent and I just had two items fixed that saved me a lot of money, one with a septic tank being clogged and some mold issues in a crawl space, saved a lot of money compared to other companies as well. 

Although this individual has performed very well in the past with investors looking to sell, things have gown downhill and we are no longer referring her.
