From a 10 year real estate broker, be prepared.

We meet a local restaurant just to meet and talk, no charge except for food/drinks.

I am a newbie investor and I am preparing to set up my LLC.

Not to mention, my pre foreclosure lists from the MLS have been shrinking due to the declining number of notice of defaults in San Diego, California.So in response, I'll be looking into researching other types of leads outside of pre foreclosures, focusing primarily on the '4 D's' (death, disease, divorce, and disaster) in the next 2 weeks in preparation for my 4th upcoming campaign in 3 weeks.

The realtor asked me to sign a contract prepared by him using a PA realtor association contract which lists me as a consultant paid by the seller.

I was there today and there were 10 other parties when I was there for 45minsI got home tonight after the gym and prepared to make an offer then my senses kicked in and I decided to not waste an hour of my time and instead search for other properties.

Start by getting good LICENSED contractors from all of the various trades to inspect it and prepare plans and budgets to bring it up to code.Also, asbestos and lead-based paint are probably involved, and must be assumed to be present until known otherwise.

Sorry if these questions sound silly or I am over thinking things I just want to be prepared so I can hit the ground running tomorow!

Preparing for my next networking event, what important things should I include on my business card besides my name, number and email?

Food for thought.
