Each block of weeks rent for different amounts.

Whilst my aim with the exam is to enable us to access MLS and gain a good grounding in the industry, I think it would be a good idea to work for this broker for a period of time, to learn the ropes in luxury real estate, whilst continuing my deals on the side. 

If the tenant didn't pay the remainder due to move in but called and demands a key the landlord would have to provide access and begin the eviction process.

A smaller house on the same block sold for $106k, other sales range between $65k-$85k. 

We consider the BP community to be the most informed in the country, or at least that we have easy access to.We are finding that experienced investors, if they see the investment as risky, they wont invest, and the amount of investment required doesn't increase or decrease their interest.  

It might be things you can't see (like needing to update the plumbing or electrical), or rooms they didn't show you in the pictures.Not having access to the property, while sometimes is the case with auction properties, is not something I'd recommend pursuing. 

Or a truly self-directed IRA with checkbook access?

@Kurt Bouma sometimes you can get access to one of the units especially if it is being turned.

@Nicole Sorensen Hull, You can certainly access spending money by borrowing against a property  but borrowing money from equity does not relieve you from recognizing gain.  

It seems counter-intuitive that they would give me tips to access their same agents or contractors as it seems we would then be competing for the same deals from the agent, priority time with the contractor, etc.
