When my phone goes on automatic do not disturb mode at 8pm I find that I get a lot done between then and around 2am.

Then set them up with an automatic rent increase of 3% per year to ensure they don't fall too far behind.

The reasons that owners let properties go for below-market value rather than listing them with an agent is the speed and ease with which the transaction will be closed.

That speed often requires a rush charge on the appraisal, because it's the most likely thing to slow the deal down.

Everything below $300k is moving at crazy speeds.

. - big catalyst for capital gains due to construction of a high speed train to the centre very close by (changes the commute to the centre from 1hr15 min to 15 min in a few years, when train station is completed).- the whole team (lawyer, broker, builders, ...) are great, transparent, very reactive and sharp. 

On the buy side, the speed of the market and the number of sales is 100% investor-driven.

Once you're able to bring them up to speed on your strategy, must-haves, and no-no's, they'll have a better shot at presenting the type of opportunities that you're looking for.

You've screwed up, but that does not mean you're automatically going to lose.

I have had to replace five year old faucets and seven year old water heaters more than once.
