I look forward to sharing it there once I get there! 

Gary,

I appreciate that very much. Having a set of more seasoned and experienced eyes to take a look at it and let me know what they think is very helpful and refreshing. I'm in the site now still looking over it and I will stand by for any points that stand out. Again, I thank you sir.

@Dave Visaya thanks for the tips! As a matter of fact I'm reading the beginner's guide as we speak and I've learned more in those pages than I've EVER known about real estate. I felt pretty good going through it learning what an ARV was in addition to the 2%, 50%, and 70% rules. I was amazed at just how simple it was written for inexperienced aspiring investors like myself to grasp conceptually. The quick learn guide is queued up for further reading!

Thanks!

Please forgive me if this question has been placed in the wrong section as I do apologize in advance. If it is not in the right place, please guide me to the right area. I was looking for information yesterday about learning some things about investing. A friend of mine told me about a company called GIC Dealfinders. It appears that they are looking for people to look for FSBO properties and upload photos of the properties and to get some information from the sellers as well and upload it to their site. If they are interested in buying the property, they do the rest of the work involved to close the deal and they pay you up to $5,000 for each deal closed.

My question is, has anyone dealt with this company and if so, what is your opinion of them before I proceed to do anything?

Thanks!

Thanks @Brandon Turner, @Sandra Gibson, and @Anne Wallace for your words and I definitely look forward to seeing you in the community!

Hi Ronnie,

Thanks for sharing! The feeling is mutual sir as I would love to meet you as well to get some insight into how you and your wife started and how you got to the point where you are now. I'm very willing to learn from you as well as share what I know to be able to help you out as well. I'm very green to real estate but I am very seasoned in technology and social media strategies and whatever I know that can benefit you along the way, you are more than welcomed to it!

I'll be in touch with you shortly sir!

Andres,

Thank you very much sir and it is a pleasure to meet you. I can see that I will be spending a lot of time in here as there is a lot of information to digest about the industry. I have plenty of notebooks, patience, and coffee to carry me through until the questions come in.

Hi Karen! I'm new to the community as well and I wanted to say hello to you and wish you the best of success in your endeavors. Look forward to seeing you around in the community!
