we ran into this in FLA  a few years back when I had 4 starts and I exited that market.. permits  sub base all pretty tough for someone who is not there and already knows the systems hands down and has a devoted loyal sub base.. thats the key in my mind.

Loan officers with 25 years of experience typically are more experienced, and have less time per file, because they have an abundance of files.Loan officers with 25 months of experience typically are less experienced, but have more time to devote to you.I can't write my own loans, so when I'm getting a loan I prefer working with less busy people when I'm doing my own real estate investment, they're more responsive and dedicated it feels like.

I signed up for something on Ron LeGrand's web-site (the free access portion).

Been doing wholesaling off and on with little success but hopefully more time to devote to that shortly.

If it’s the latter, then you’re going to need to devote an immense amount of time and energy to becoming a full time agent.

experience: I’m on my 3rd flipage: early 40sday job: brand and web design/development retirement savings: noneI want to learn about buy and hold to secure having SOMETHING for retirement!

No, I've not invested with SCDC, and it's not likely I will without evidence they can do / have done what they've claimed on their web site.

I wonder if there is a way to web scrape for when a new realtor is hired or passed exams in the area so that I could hit them up immediately.  

Or I could suck it up and create a brand new website on WordPress for $1000 and then not have to pay more than $10 a month for the web hosting. 

It’s personal to the seller, who’s likely devoted a considerable amount of time and money to their operation.
