As long as you can do both comfortably, then you have just created yourself a job that you love.

. ====== I thank you for providing the details on how you choose your agents.

I got it now, I think the term "agreement" is used to make the seller a little more comfortable instead of using the word "contract" that will probably spook them.

What are some ways that I, as a new investor, can offer to investors to make them more comfortable with partnering?

I could use that money in this down market to make some great investments on additional rental properties and have a much more comfortable life in the long run.

If you choose to plow the income back into paying them off, great.

I had a mentor tell me that if you don't feel comfortable in a neighborhood you can have a rent house there.

Now I'm second guessing myself though, thinking people may not remember the dashes and that its too long of a name for the signs.Tell me which if these alternatives you'd choose for placing on my next sign order, and to place on my business card (as I dont think people want to email me at"[email protected])1.

You COULD ask.. but I would only do that if you really felt comfortable with your agent.

If you really tapped for money you can knock on the door if you so choose to.
