@Joe Splitrock

Who's side are you on. Landlords can't do this or that...

1st year, 1st semester of Engineering school we learned that, aerodynamically the Bumble Bee can't fly BUT they don't know it, they just fly!

Landlords, meet with your Tenants and get that Rent, quit shooting yourself in the foot!

If you're caught up in this situation...Tenants NOT paying you rent, then I'm sorry but I have NO sympathy for you. There's so much dough out there for Renters between Cities/Towns, VA, Churches, Synagogues and Mosques, etc that you should've gotten off your butt on Day One, reached out and helped YOUR Tenants and YOURSELF!

When the head Judge of the Massachusetts Housing Courts speaks to us annually, the First thing he says is "What is with you Landlords? Where were you at month one or two? Why are you here when you're owed 7 or 8 months Rent? You're probably not going to get much back rent? Are your guys well off or what?

Best time to work with those non-paying Tenants, March 1, 2020, 2nd Best time 9:39am EST June 25, 2021 Come on Landlords, if you have a tough Tenant (i.e. 7 on the 1-10 scale) then you don't have to be an 11, but you do have to be a 7.1;-)

Good morning folks,

As I'm sure you know,

Real Estate Investing success isn’t just about selling houses. It’s about selling yourself… to Sellers, Lenders, Contractors and Buyers!

Imagine what your business would look like with a consistent stream of deals... all from motivated sellers and private lenders in your market who... see YOU as the Clear Choice!

At our next Tuesday, June 29, 6:30pm meeting, We'll speak with former math teacher turned Real Estate Investor, Max Keller about how he stopped chasing leads and struggling, to compete for deals by positioning himself as, the “Trusted Expert” with his own book.

Max will also share how you can copy his strategy to Stand Out from the competition...even if you’re not a writer. You definitely don’t want to miss this. Especially if you are investing in a market packed with flippers and wholesalers… all chasing the same motivated seller leads.

Sorry to hear of this tough situation. As my Father would tell me "To avoid disappointment always have an alternative." Might be time to move on but some see recourse for you... @James Wise, nice of you to rub it in:-( "...saw this coming a mile away" Monday morning Qback!

Good morning,

There's a quick question I'd like your help with.

Many of our Members and Associates, including myself, have State Licenses: CSL and RE (Construction Supervisor license & Real Estate Broker license). These licenses require periodic continuing education hours and renewal fees.

We're often asked, Who do you recommend for the 12 hour Continuing Education hours?

Some of the CSL providers are:

*CSI-Institute dot com

*MassConstruction dot com

*MA-Construction-Supervisor dot net

*247Mass dot net/license

and RE

*MaOnlineCe dot net

*Mass-RealEstateSchool dot net

*MyReSchool dot net

If you're licensed, Can you send us a quick response answering,

Where are you taking your Continuing Education hours? And Why with that provider?

Thanks, Mike Hurney, [email protected] Director MassRealEstate dot net & NewHampshireREIA dot org PO Box 307, Marblehead, MA 01945

PS You folks know the dot net and dot com are used, so we don't get stuck in your email filters;-)

PPS I'll send you the results of your responses on Friday, thanks again, Mike

1. Quick Update on the Market. AND if you've been thinking about Selling a home, NOW IS THE TIME!

You're welcome to contact [email protected] for a Complimentary Market Analysis of your Home.

Also, when you're looking at a new "Farm" (area, City/Town to invest in) it's important to identify the fastest moving "bracket" of Properties, who wants to get into a project that takes years to turn around?
