If you are a provisional broker you have to be supervised by a broker (broker in charge) Once you satisfy your educational requirements to become full broker you can operate as a sole proprietor

Post: Best areas near USC to purchase rental?

My son is attending USC this fall and although he is living on campus I want to invest in a property that I can rent out and I'm not familiar with the best areas for this purpose.  I would love to hear some feedback so I can start looking.  With one kid at UNC Charlotte now the other at USC Im all about residency these days.  Thanks for your input

That is a tough situation but if it were me I would keep the security and let them out and try to offer an incentive in order to get a new tenant in ASAP.  Something like " $250.00 off the first month if rented by 7.15..etc. 

I agree with not wanting to be locked in for 2 years with tenants who don't want to be there.

Keep us posted

I have yet to experience one here in NC or SC, but have done a couple in NY State during the burst.  I am very interested to see how this works here and from what I am reading, one can go post auction during the 10 day upset and do just that? In NY there were a lot of people and you had to go on the auction day so I am very intrigued in checking out this upset rule. Id love to hear more stories about this process.

It sounds like you have what can be the hardest part done (investors) ..If you don't mind me asking, what type of flipping are you looking to do? ( straight rehab, wholesale, fix and hold etc)  I usually can find the property then have to nail down one of my investors if I'm not putting my own cash in.  I have different ways of finding the properties based on what my end goal is and if you give a bit of an idea of what you want your end result to be I'd be happy to share what I'd do if it were me.
