No one wants to share their secrets, huh?

What's the most creative way you've heard, or are implementing yourself, to find great deals?

@Aaron K. I have in mind people who already have a fulltime job, but who want to make some more money on the side.

A good example is from the podcast, where they used uber drivers as bird dogs.

How much should I pay bird dogs?

A percentage or a set rate?

I'm leaning towards a percentage, because that seems more fair, but i'm open to suggestions either way.

Thanks guys!

I recently ran into a fellow inv DealMachine.

I've just started RE investing, and am looking to find deals, but i'm not sure if I should go with DealMachine.. It sounds too good to be true.

Please advise.

Thanks!

Guys, I am working with a real estate investor as the acquisitions manager, but we haven't closed on a deal since I've been with the company - over 5 months.  I'm at a crossroads...

I'm a recent college graduate, living at my parents house with my wife and daughter.  Rent is free, so I'm able to afford to work for free for a little while, but I can't go much further for free.  Should I get a part-part job, or even a full-time job so I can start making money and invest in rental properties on my own?  Or should I stick it out with the RE investor?  Or should I find another RE investor who is actually making deals happen - which I've found?

The problem with leaving my current mentor is that she has spent a lot of time and money on me through various trainings.  I feel a certain sense of loyalty to her.  But I want to learn more about RE, and make $$$$.  We're never going to move out of my parents' house if I'm an eternal student...

Your replies are greatly valued!

@merrick, I'm always looking for deals in the Raleigh/Durham area. You can add me to your buyers list.
