Hi Alex. As in use my own funds to lend to others?

Hi all. Not sure if this is the best place to ask this but looking at the topics I felt that it would be. Im an experienced rehabber but Im looking to diversify. I want to do loans in South Florida and South Carolina as these are the areas I rehab. I want to broker both Hard Money and Conventional/FHA loans. Ive been doing research but I want some advice from some mortgage brokers on the industry and the best way to go about getting started. I know how to get licensed regarding the 20 hour class and both state and national exams. Im mostly looking for advice on getting started like going with a national brokerage(to lend in all states) vs local state brokerage, etc.

After speaking with the rep. myself, she is asking for all their tax returns bank statements etc to get it reduced and talk about maybe removing it as they have been seperated and if they can prove that we may even be able to see about getting it reinstated. No one has seen this before?

Maybe I should add it wasn't done intentionally. She didn't even know what it was, and showed me her taxs amd such thay were done by some no name person claiming big returns. This is more a case of ignorance than tax evasion.

Thanks for the heads up @WayneBrooks Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions? As real estate investors we come up with solutions or work arounds that others don't or aren't willing to figure out. 

Hi all. I have a situation I've never seen before so I need some help. 

I have a deal that I wanted to keep for a rental because of the location. I have it under contract for $160k and it's worth about $350k. However I found it has a $100k mortgage and $113k in back taxes that just caught up to the owner a month before I got it under contract. The back taxes are because she was claiming homestead exemption on 2 houses. 

Does anyone know if I can help her fight the taxs or get a reduction. I've done enough research and found out that her husband was claiming one house and she the one I'm buying but she never changed her name and they just caught up to her. Any advice???
