A lot of the out-of-state investors get taken advantage of because many wholesalers create their own market. Recently spoke with an investor who was convinced that 3 bed / 1 bath homes built in 40's-50's were easy to retail exit in prices $50's - 70's. I thought, "maybe during the subprime boom". We live in a much more negotiable age. The "take it or leave it" crowd should definitely stay home. I’ve seen a lot of investors, wholesalers in particular, refuse to budge on prices.

In my area there are many who have lost employment due to companies shutting down or leaving the area. My primary goal is to help my clients and inform them that I am aware of what is happening and I will do my best to help, try to be a friend. Hopefully they will see I really do care and not trying to make a easy dollar at their expense. Great Thread! LeJonR I can not agree more.
