Dave, Brandon, Thank you for the welcome. I have already started reading the Ultimate Beginner's Guide & reading forums. I will start listening to podcasts while walking or running during my daytime routine.

Thank you Dmitriy.

Thank you Rick & J Martin.

Rick Through my 12 years of closing loans, I have become friendly with a few. I am not sure if they deal with investors or not but I will be finding out and can pass that information on to you.

J Martin, thank you for the tips, I see there is a lot of information on this site.

I guess I should explain why I think I will need to consider HM/PM to start. I have good to Excellent Credit but considering conventional financing to help a parent with their mortgage. I will also be taking over a family rental in the south and would like to build one maybe two homes on the additional property using conventional financing.

Thank to all for the welcomes. Paul thank you for the resources, it is much appreciated!

Hi all, My name is Larry & I am from the extreme SW burbs of Chicago.

I currently prepare taxes & close loans for many different title companies. Closing some of the investment loans is what has lead me to this point.

I just recently became interested in REI about two years ago but have yet to act on it, it's a big step. I have been looking at & watching properties for about same time frame to get a feel for trends & prices.

I have been reading for a while, trying to gain some knowledge & information. I am interested in finding a balance between flipping & buy & hold.  I would definitely have to consider Hard Money or Private Investors to start & really would appreciate the dos & don'ts to this method.

I'll keep reading but any tips, advice, or help would be greatly appreciated!
