Anybody heard of this company?  I forget how I found them - I've been on so many real estate websites - but they email you potential deals once a week.  I'm a newbie; I don't know nothing from nothing.  They sent me a suburban Cleveland single-family home that presently has a tenant paying $1,000/mo.  It's selling for $77,000.  If I pay $1,000 earnest money, I get 30 days to do my due diligence.  The thing is:  I have only $8,000.  I am moneyless.  Is there any way to scare up the money I need in 30 days?  The pro forma they provided said I'd make $654/mo net income.  But, of course, I'd do my own research/calculations.  I'd get an inspector in to see if any repairs would have to be done, though the property is recently remodeled.  Any and all feedback is welcome.

Am looking forward to this.

How do you get a house under contract for 30 days to do your due diligence?  Do you need a proof of funds letter?  What is this exactly?  Do you need a bank statement with a lot of money in it?  Do you need a pre-approved loan?

I'm Cathey. I'm strictly a newbie. I'm looking into investing in a Multifamily in the Cleveland, OH area; I'm originally from Ohio but live in Alameda now. I'm interested in self-directed IRAs. I'm curious about crowdfunding to raise funds for investing in real estate.

I'll be there if it does not conflict with the Christian Meditation Retreat I'm attending in October!

I'll be there. I look forward to meeting everybody and learning about the East Bay Meetup.
