USREIA "U.S. Real Estate Investing Association" Dave Lindahl

[Darrie W. Bennett]

Can anyone give me some insight on the USREIA "U.S. Real Estate Investing Association". I just discovered them; and I like them. Not a R.E. Guru. I finished their free 5 lesson video training, which was great. They want almost $1,000 for the complete course. ... Now as Bigger Pockets says, most of the info the schools sell is for free somewhere on-line, and I have gotten enormous help from Bigger Pockets for free. Now USREIA impressed me so much, I am thinking about making the investment anyway ( since I have the money ) just to put the icing on my cake; so to speak. One of the big advantages I see is the Transaction Funding and Proof of Funds they offer. ... Comments please !

can't comment on whether the 1k is worth the icing on the cake.. however transactional funding and proof of funds letters are readily attainable especially in your area .. If its Oakland  or Alameda county were you want to focus your investing.

Just google hard money lenders ... they will provide proof of funds.

And there really is not much TRUE transactional funding going on these days.

Most HML if not all are going to want you to have some cash as well... Its pretty difficult these days to use none of your own money or if you don't have any money make deals happen... At least with experienced lenders.
