It's going to run you an extra $1,000 or so but you will get to use their furniture and design expertise.

I'm guessing there are nearly as many business models as there are real estate companies.

Question for the people who focus on short sales, what's a better business model selling short sale leads, with all the paperwork completed to a realtor, or doing all the work and teaming up with a realtor to spilt the commission they make.I guess my question is where is the money at when doing the short sale.

The power of compounding interest sure would be on the side of the lender model, but there's no chance for capital appreciation over time.

Are you happy to connect with anyone who has similar interests, or are you specifically looking for a group of people with particular expertise or experience?

I have a degree in Economics and studied econometrics and have over 20 years of creating predictive models. 

I need a model to follow so I can secure a steady income for the future.

After an hour, the first person still can't tell you anything about it while the PM, in less than a minute, will have the person's credit profile down 95% accurately.When I hire a PM, I am NOT looking for "actual time concentrating on my property", I want "Knowledge and Expertise spent on my property."

On my website I am creating, I talk all about our model, strategy and how we rent to this group. 

Now, this was a guy that had sailed me through a triple year audit, I didn't doubt his expertise, but my returns didn't warrant his attention.
