Real Estate Investing

[LaRaye Alderman]

Hello BP family,

My name is LaRaye Alderman and I am a New hungry REI investor with questions. I was informed to post my questions here and that the BP family would help me answer my questions. I haven't done my first deal yet but plan on soon. Here is the start of my questions.

Do I need to have a website on my business cards to look professional to lenders?

Do I need to have my business cards available to do business with lenders so that they will know I am serious?

Does the contractor decide on the price of the and renovations?  

Is the price for rehabbing the property included for the contractor or is that a separate price?     

Where is the best place to seek out a contractor?

Do you tell the Real Estate Agent that you are a new investor and you are looking for x properties in y area or do I just tell them I am a real estate investor looking to invest in properties.

I know these are a lot of questions but I am hungry and I need to know. I have been on BP and viewing the webinar. I would appreciate all the advice I could get.

Thank you in advance.
