Does anyone know who the major lenders are in the reverse mortgage market? I'm looking at them as a lead source for homeowners (those that use this product). Thanks BP'ers!

I'd like to join the meet up as well, Bowling Green is closer but I can make it to Louisville also.

Thanks @Aaron Reynolds It does have some attic space above, I can climb up there in the morning and check it out. The wall in question is probably 12 ft wide from the door opening to the end wall.

I'm working on my third flip and want to open up the living space. How do most people determine if a wall separating the living room and kitchen is load bearing in a traditional rectangle shaped home?

If this wall is load bearing, I want to cut out a pass through window. However, my first preference would be to take out the whole wall.

Attached is a pic I took during one a walk through. The wall behind the chair is my target and runs perpendicular to the trusses. Thanks!

Brett,

Talk to Mary Ann Smith with Flagstar Bank, 502-710-0241. She seemed just as knowledgeable as the LO that I used from Wells Fargo, and I really liked her.

Cheers!

I highly recommend that you check out the info from the Podcast Answer Man Cliff Ravenscraft. He's helped a ton of people including Pat Flynn (Smartpassiveincome.com) and Dan Miller (48days.com), et al.

Would this be a tax deductible business expense for the iPad and monthly service charges? And would I need to track the amount of time I'm using it for business vs personal uses?

One thing that stood out to me is that there are a lot of I's and me's in the body of your letter. Just my opinion, but selling isn't telling so maybe more focus on the benefits to the seller?

Brad Chandler I can't help but be curious. Would you share what your average ROI is in the avg $100 per conversion?
