Though, the MLS is extremely valuable so a catch 22.

However, If you pursue a mentor there are several very qualified on this site; which I think would provide you a better and more valuable experience.

1st- I`d like to thank Joshua Dorkin for creating such an awesome platform for networking & learning, also the members who contribute to the site thus making it so valuable !

I learned some very valuable lessons that I'm going to share with all of you.

Most people in real estate seem to think that you have to DO something to property to make it more valuable.  

Some rivalries transcend the sport itself.

Catch and release only.Many of the sport fish around here are hatchery raised, including the majority of the salmon.

I'm still looking for a reputable online direct marketing company that I can use, as well as a foreclosure/REO/investment property search site(s) like foreclosure.com, realtytrac...I was just hoping to get some sort of unbiased feedback of which sites to avoid and those that are a valuable tool to have.As always, your opinions are much appreciated.

But since you felt the need to correct me on it, do you have any other valuable contribution to make on this topic regarding property management and the issues I've raised?

Thanks everyone for your valuable advice!
