Buying my first investment questions
Hi Everyone,
Im Lisa I have spent the better part of 15 years working for high powered investors and pools of investors. Now I work a day job have good credit make good money and I am scared to death all of a sudden.
The market in Northern California is not cheap.
My 401K is now a 201K But I had an idea and I wanted to run it past you all.
Can I max out my credit cards for my down payment?
Do I try to find a seller who will carry the down?
I bought houses all day long for these investors to the point where I have an LLC that is doing nothing.
I have a loan in place i just need an address...
