Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in 20 years dodges eviction againA Long Island man who hasn’t paid his mortgage in more than 20 years got another free pass from the courts this week after hiring a new lawyer.Guramrit Hanspal, 52, hasn’t coughed up a dime to live in his East Meadow home since making a single mortgage payment in 1998, but ducked eviction for decades by filing lawsuits and bankruptcies, records show."

I have wholesaled somewhere around 15 times or so, albeit almost a decade ago since my last one, and at no time did I ever violate the brokering laws in CA.

Elder abuse In Florida, I think, is a 3 year jail term for that kind of offense.In Washington in particular, where I bought properties in preforeclosure for decades, the law was changed so that you can't even solicit preforeclosures without violating the law.

What is the average annual appreciation over the last decade? 

I  have 2 sons 38 ,40 .They were around me for over 30 years .I taught them the same .Had them with me full time for over a decade.,( about 900).

I’m partial to Metro Phoenix as I’ve lived and invested here since I graduated from ASU a few decades ago.So many different options for investing…and our economy continues to grow. 

I have a background and education in Construction Engineering and worked in commercial construction for the better part of a decade while I was investing in residential real estate on the side.I've been in brokerage as a real estate advisor for the past 4+ years full time and I specialize in 2-4 unit residential multifamily which accounts for half of what I do (about 2 or 3 multifamily deals a month) and the other half consist of single family homes and condos.I grew up in San Diego and its all I know, I got my undergrad in Construction Engineering and Graduate degree in Business locally also.I am a big fan of starting off investing locally with low money down and that is how I personally started myself...I read a ton of books and listened to countless hours of podcasts but all the magic happened when I stopped reading and listening and started taking action.Welcome and feel free to send me a private message if you want to chat.

., and I can confidently say I am committed to doing this.Growing up, my parents operated about 20 student apts and half a dozen townhomes, so I'm not unfamiliar with multifamily and I at least have people very close to me that know the ins and outs of running commercial, granted they've been out of the game for a decade. 

From what I am told, this is not a thing offered to just any/every agent but I can't say with certainty because I have been an "insider" in the new-con world for decades and with that I wouldn't really be best to know the experience of a newer agent.
