And for my clients sake, I take advantage of sellers that hire a bad agent, sometimes to the extent of 10% of the price or more.And for my sellers that I represent, if a buyer comes to me without an agent, I'm going to work over the buyer as much as I can.

I accept most dogs (except for dangerous breeds per insurance carrier) and cats.  

Pour the grease into that and once the grease has set and the can is full (ie don't use it once time, keep adding to it), put the can in the garbage. 

Well the truth is, it takes a certain breed.

What matters is that you are true in providing information to the insurance, for example, if you are renting to students, the insurance will be higher than a family, if your tenants have a dog, the breed is very important, if the house has a fireplace, you want to declare it.

And our cab costs are low enough and cash reserves are high enough that the new breed of investor has a false sense of security.Some days it feels like investors are buying because they're bored and not because they're making reasonable decisions.All this said it is still a great market.

.: It seems that OOs are not exactly a vanishing breed.

We do have breed restrictions per insurance requirements, and we require a pet addendum to the lease where, among other requirements, they agree that any pet damage is not considered normal wear and tear and that they will be held responsible for all damage that could reasonably have been caused by their pet, so we don't have them trying to say the chewed cabinet door or dug-up yard was the neighbor's kid, not their pet.   

I type "questions1" in my iPhone and it replace it with all of the questions I want to ask.Setting up showings:Do as many as you can in a one or two hour block.

Then find the best mentor or expert you can in that kind of investing.
