@ Eric Anderson

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my post!  I am actually looking for someone to mentor me while I drive for dollars for them.  I would recommend posting this as your message with your town in the body of the message. Investors in your area with a keyword search set up will see it and hopefully reach out to you.  Word of caution, only let highly experienced investors mentor you from afar- It's very advanced level.

@ Daniel Ryu

I have not found any takers, which is entirely my own fault. I haven't been marketing myself as aggressively as I should in order to create my opportunity. I haven't been idle though. I am very close to finishing my real estate course so that I have more to offer my future business relationships.

Are you interested in investing in the Jacksonville area?

I live in Jacksonville so I can state the homes here require a regular pressure wash schedule. My husband washes our vinyl 1-2 times per year to keep the algae/mildew/pollen off. I agree that if the home isn't in a condition much different than when she signed the lease, I would ask her what prompted the need for the sudden clean?

Hello all, 

I'm in the Jacksonville, Florida area and looking for local banks that provide loans for buy & hold investment properties. Who can recommend banks/credit unions they have had positive experiences with?

Thanks in advance!

Hello seasoned investors,

Have you ever considered allowing someone to drive for dollars for you in exchange for mentoring them? Why or why not?

Christina welch is great. I've done three transactions with her and currently liking for a fourth. [email protected]

There are many Self-Directed IRA custodians out there. It is advisable to do your due diligence and ask about such things as how long have they been in business, are alternative assets their sole focus, are they BBB accredited and rated, are they a regulated financial institution, have they ever been sanctioned by any regulatory bodies, how many accounts and how much in assets do they administer?

This has been so helpful, thank you! In regards to them being sanctioned by any regulatory bodies, how can I investigate their response to know if they are telling me the truth or not?

In regards to how long they have been in business. I assume that longer is better but is there a specific tenure I should be looking for? (since 90% of small busi fail in the first 5 years, I am definitely looking for longer than 5 years tenure). 

Do I want alternative assets to be their sole focus? I can see the argument both ways but am wondering which one is better?

What amount am I looking for and why in response to "how much in assets to they administer"?

When you say "are they a regulated institution", I think you are referring to gov't backed like "FDIC". Is that correct?

Thank you for taking the time to post your original response and any additional help you are able to provide on this one!

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my forum! I suppose I should have been more specific and posted along the lines of needing a company that is licensed to work in the state of Florida.
