@Wendell looks like most of the deals that you do are HUD homes, do you find making offers on HUD homes easier to do to vs other leads?

What sort of investing do you do?

What don't you want to do?

B just wanted to close in a different entity than the one we originally wrote the AOS with.

Are you investing for pure cashflow- any market will do?

Have to do and should do are 2 separate issues.  

I look up crime stats and population growth charts and market analysis reports on Zillow or Redfin etc but I feel like that’s exactly what someone who googled “how to Real Estate” would do.

I was not suggesting to go to an attorney in every situation, but if the OP is not familiar with the legal ramifications of the earnest money, and the realtor is not able to advise, nor is there specific language in the AOS outlining mediation, or steps of who is due earnest money it might be wise to consult with an attorney to fully understand legal options.

@Jaren BarnesI don’t really play in the MF sandbox but some colleagues that do are always talking about Gross Rent Multiplier.

This who conversation has gone on for weeks upon weeks now, and EVRY TIME it's a "o-o-oh, it's coming, it's coming, just starting, any day, any hour, it's coming" aaaaannnd NOTHING.
