MLS vs. Off-MLS
What are a few differences between using a Realtor/MLS to find a buy-and-hold vs. tracking down someone who meets your criteria and qualifying them, negotiating with them, etc. (off-MLS purchase)? I would imagine that a lot of you stout investors might find the lack of Realtors and such to be an advantage... So maybe I should phrase it more like "Is it viable to use a Realtor and MLS to buy and hold something?
