Good work. Credit where credit is due, your second example was a good one. I have a question? What % of your clients end up buying in rural one-horse towns? These sorts of places scare me. When the mine closes, the whole town becomes toast. You'd have to ban close to half this forum if...

Totally agree about the sharing of ideas bit. Unfortunately, the flavour of this forum has changed since hoards of fee-for-service people have started to made this place their home. Some have a contribution to make, and they are generous with their time. Others less so. Common sense would...

Can you hit us with examples in major cities rather than one-horse towns? Without even trying, I could find you a house in woop woop for $40,000. You'd get close to $200 a week in rent. Pretty healthy return eh? But when the mine closes, it will be worthless and you will still have the...

Nobody would go as far as to say there has been any wrongdoing by the mods. That would be committing lese majeste and would invite a permanent IP-address banning. {removed personal comment} All that said, a bit more transparency would not be out of place on SS. A bit of sunlight would give...

Some of us dislike seeing fellow investors ripped off. Earlier yesterday, on this thread, I asked BAs to list their clients success stories. I wanted to see specific examples of nous. Although the silence is deafening, I will nevertheless keep an open mind. Perhaps Propertunity can give...

Kudos to you Propertunity. You are the only BA here who (to me) seems convincing. That you have a personal track record of IP success speaks volumes. Clearly, the larger part of your net worth seems to have come from investing, not from commissions. Noteworthy indeed. To all the other BA's...

Anyone who pays a BA a commission without doing his or her own homework is more a victim than a moron.

[deleted text] Personally, I keep well away from Buyers Agents because they are unlikely to be around when things go sour. But that's just my own opinion.

Wise words dtraeger. I have not met a single successful investor who, ten years after hiring a buyers agent, did not regret his or her decision. Buying an IP is not rocket science folks. Do your own homework. Don't fork out ten grand to somebody who is not a blood relative. He or she will...
