All agents are required to download a quick-dial app with tracking service on their phone which allows them to call management with one single touch of a button; they are asked to call immediately should they feel unsafe5.

I've talked to some people in the area who have stressed buying around here because the market will rebound and you'll be able to appreciate, but I'd rather not just bank on that.

I'd rather have a car lot, less stress, fewer regulation, money can be the same or better, inventory is easy to find and it turns faster, but that's just me. :)

I really appreciate your words of advice.Glenn Espinosa I sent you a pm about the local group. thanks for letting me know about it, it sounds great.Lynn M. it definitely is a good time to start. with websites like biggerpockets and friendly people, it makes getting into this kind of thing less stressful than it could be.

Being new, they look so tempting and stress free.

I would head over there in person, get a contract and authorization letter signed and let the seller know that you will contact the mortgage company yourself and get the financial details.Try to never stress the seller out.

Sorry to keep pushing the "poor" me button, but if we (wholesalers) cannot afford an appraiser, can we compensate by getting @ least 3-4 comps?

I was able to get a few applicants during June, even with the house still occupied, with dirty carpet.So far this month, I've had some interest, no applicants.My current tenants want to break lease early, so they have tidied up a little, but the carpet is still dirty.I'm not too stressed about being unable to find a renter, because the current tenant will still pay the rent.

I have all the normal concerns about getting started and wondering if there is a property out there that could produce income for us, and I'm curious about how to handle maintenance/labor without putting extra stress on my spouse or taking too much away from our busy family life (he doesn't want more on his plate.)I am interested in all kinds of properties, but mostly want to have a good first experience if we decide to take the leap -- it will be so important to show that this can work.

In the long run you'll be better off, less stressed, and make more money!
