Story
Every real estate agent or broker (depending on the state in which you practice) all has the same challenge in common: Where are they going to get their next sale? Traditional methods of finding buyers and sellers such as contacting FSBO owners, “farming” neighborhoods, hosting open houses, and pursuing “expired” listings can be successful; however, they are often very competitive and can leave agents weary. One avenue that remains constant and viable is estate-related properties that are in probate, many of which are sold in the first six to 12 months after the owner passes.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Story
Every real estate agent or broker (depending on the state in which you practice) all has the same challenge in common: Where are they going to get their next sale? Traditional methods of finding buyers and sellers such as contacting FSBO owners, “farming” neighborhoods, hosting open houses, and pursuing “expired” listings can be successful; however, they are often very competitive and can leave agents weary. One avenue that remains constant and viable is estate-related properties that are in probate, many of which are sold in the first six to 12 months after the owner passes.

Not as expected
This was a 50,000 foot view then a 1 inch view.
I was hoping this would include actual methodology to conduct a probate but it gave an overview and specific examples. It may be helpful for someone needing to see a big picture view but not for me, who needed nuts & bolts.
