I believe honesty and integrity is the only way to create long-lasting wealth. I do not want to mislead my potential investors. Or do things that are unethical or illegal. I really appreciate your input.

Here is definition I found. Not a SEC defintion though. http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/private+Web+site

 Does any one know  where i can find the SEC definition of "public website"? Is a paid subscription to a web site like bigger pockets considered a public website. If so are my bigger pockets "colleagues" considered soliciting to the public? I'm not looking for opinions or be careful warnings (with respect I mean no offense). I am looking for facts. I appreciate any input thank you in advance for your time.

So after 5 more minutes of research I found out that each lender has their own list of "available" properties for sale. You just have to weed through them one by one. I will be a succesful real estate investor even if it hair lips the president. If it was easy everybody would do it. I am MOTIVATED to find that first deal that will start the domino effect of success. I am watching, searching, and actively waiting. Thank you Fred Heller for the wisdom.

After hours of research I have decided that my first deal will consist of a forclosure not being sold at auction. I am looking for one in my market area that is being sold straight up by a bank. I am extremely novice and I am looking for all the pointers I can get. I don't believe in unicorns but I know if I can get a profitable deal under my belt the domino effect of success will come. How and  where do I find these mythical creatures of profit?

 I have been a residential service repair plumber for the last 13 years. Before that I was an electrician in the Navy. Prior to the Navy I worked as a carpenter on a framing crew.

I have a great understanding of how houses are constructed. It has been my dream to own a real estate investement company and this is my first step. I have the construction and real estate knowledge it takes to be successful.
