We should take this one step further and talk about even more value the right REALTOR provides (you won't get this guy or gal at a discount).

he/she assigns stuff for you so you get you paid your FEE and DEPOSIT and you don't even have to close.  I'll bet you won't negotiate that right?  Why should we bend over for you?

I like this saying:

"Pigs get fat, Hogs get slaughtered"  

Trustee sale is the same thing as a foreclosure or referee sale.   

Yes-  notice must be given through publication prior to foreclosure. 

 Typically the local business journal will provide a comprehensive list of what is upcoming weekly.  In very rural areas you may have to go somewhere to get the list, but very seldom.  They should be on-line somewhere, though you will have to pay for access.

My post earlier was from 7 years ago, before I was an agent, and now broker.  Time flies!!  

It will be hard to find anyone willing to work for a discount unless they're bad at their job and have nothing better to do.  While it might not take much time, it devalues your time.  We all have the same amount of time to work.  Why would I work for 1% if I have enough clients that see the value I add through my strengths in sales / negotiations to pay me my fee without barter.  Most agents don't succeed.  I will wager that anyone he gets to do it isn't good at it, and won't be around long.  

Are brokers protected?  If so, PM me the details.  Thanks

I grew up in Williamsport and do some investing here. Very slow market for the most part & you can't push rates much. You can get a stable tenant but ROI isn't as good as Rochester.

i'm at the brickyard in Williamsport right now.  Great town!  Hit me up if you want to talk local RE stratedgies.  It is a different market with nuiances but still awesome IMO.

Rochester is an incredible market.  A lot of people that buy and are not local & think they know best, after all how could zillow let them down, right?  Unfortunately, they don't know best.  They buy garbage properties because they never even opened their eyes to other opportunities.  They work in the cheapest markets which have the most buyers, and spin their tiers trying to steal properties or buying **** they shouldn't.  That is why you'll hear them crying in the forums... Those able to switch to the abundance mindset easily acquire many properties in great areas and the money they have out of pocket rolls back to them enabling them to continue to purchase indefinitely.  You may have to start small, but that doesn't mean you should buy junk.

Welcome to BP!  Rochester is an incredible market for investment properties!  Are you planning a trip?

You can use a standard Purchase and Sale contract to get it under contract for "Ralphy Rosado or assigns"  from here you can simply assign the contract to an end user with a 1 page document.  Shoot me an email and I'll send both to you.

What are you trying to accomplish?  Get something together and I'll help you out with the details.  You've still got my contact?

Cheers,

Mark
