You know you're a dyed in the wool Investor...

Education & Training with Realty Mark Associates AB066878


If you have visited Home Depot 8 times over the past 2 weeks

If you rather spend $15,000 to fix your properties than buying a new car

If you hate permits and nosy neighbors reporting on your renovations to the local officials

If you think the Home Owner's Association should shut up and mind their own business

If all you want in a birthday party is to talk about real estate

If all you want for Christmas is a Home Depot Card

If your vehicles are full of tools, hardware, and fast food bags

If most weekends involve looking at houses, showing houses, or fixing houses

If you can't sleep at night thinking about real estate deals

If all your friends, relatives, and family members think you are nuts about real estate

If you kids can count on making extra money by cleaning your rentals after evictions

If "Flip" does not mean, "to toss so as to cause to turn over in the air" to you

If "holding a note" does not mean, "holding a memorandum" to you

If "Rehab" doesn't mean "Drug rehabilitation" to you

If this house looks like it has potential!

Suzanne's Property with potential

School is never out for the Successful.

Michael - The list makes me chuckle especially because I have done or said most everything on it.

I really hate when people spy on me...OK, who tattled.  My spouse gets upset with me at most parties.  I just say, "Hey, they started it!"

William - At parties when the conversation dies down I pipe up with, "I sell AND buy real estate". Then the avalanche of questions begins  :-)   I like how people open up with their real estate stories.
