@Chris Harris yes it is true the MLS is maybe the worst place to look for deals but it does not mean you can find one. here is what I suggest if it is really some thing you are interested in.go to the MLS filter it to show a price range less that what ever your agverage retail price is in your area.

Right now I'd say that if you can buy under market value, and cash flow a true net $100-$200/door while getting 20 to 30% ROI on your initial investment, that's a good deal.

@Adrian Schlueter Here's a true story for you on some back property taxes in FL where I'm from and where I invest.

My dad was an english professor; I can't help myself...True story: I admit to sending a colleague request because I was so happy to see someone spell the word "pique" correctly.See there?

I find that doing > reading any day, and look forward to getting out there and getting some true experience.My weekends are open, so if you have some marketing questions or on site work that needs to get done, I'm happy to exchange my time for knowledge/experience.I look forward to seeing you all in the forums.- Brian

I appreciate it.What you say is true only if all the details of the purchase are set forth in the lease option agreement.

And you can leave her off yours if vice versa is true.

Brandon, it is true if you had a deal it would be some much easy to build a cash buyers list and the truth is that you can only grow this over time. every call you recieve, email responding to a houses for sale etc.. those should be added in to a list.If you want to build a list here is how i started and it is what I do till this day.

@James Wise Reminds me of a Dan Sullivan comment, in the beginning of our career we convince ourselves that we would be truly happy if we had 100,000 a year net income.However when we achieve that we become a bit disillusioned, and we convince ourselves that True Happiness is at 200,000 annually.

Read it has to be based on prime rate, is this true, and does it mean it must be exactly Prime?
