Hello Bigger Pockets members, I may have gotten myself in a little bit of a pickle with google voice. I set up a number and tied it to my cell phone number (it’s a work phone so I want to use google voice). I listened to a book on wholesaling where the author said it’s really important to have an easy to read and remember number with consecutive digits and so forth. Mine is not, so I went in to try to change it. 

I couldn’t figure out how to change it so I deleted my number and tried to add a new one. First off, it only allows me to select my previous number. Secondly, and this is the real problem, when I try to tie it to my cellphone number and verify it says something like “unable to verify”. I’ve tried different browsers, logging out, everything I can think of but it never allows me to tie the number to my cell phone number again. 

This is the problem, does anyone know how to fix this or know any alternatives to Google voice?

Thanks all

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to have a website created for my wholesaling business that is geared towards sellers. The website should have a lead capture form, and look modern and professional. It will be included on my yellow letters / post cards / etc.

I will also need a website eventually to showcase my deals to buyers. 

Does anybody have any recommendations? I hate the idea of monthly payments and would rather pay $$ up front and own a website, although if monthly payment type solutions are the best than I would do it.

Thanks!

Hi Nemi, please PM me more info on the deal or email to sdalinger@gmail.com

Thanks!

This investor explained to me that he’s never heard of the loan being called due and he’s done it himself his whole career - reasoning being it’s a performing asset for them. A recent episode of then podcast had an investor who’s been investing for 60 years, he said he’s only heard of it being called due once in all his years of investing. 

You purchase with your own personal financials as Nghi says, and the next day you get your LLC put on the title - this was explained to me by an experienced investor in my area Mr. Joe Homs (on BP).

Hi Hilly can you please on me more info, I am interested. Thanks

@Omid A. Great job on this house and great numbers! Can I ask who did the staging, is this something that you budgeted for in your numbers, or did the real estate agent do it? Do you always do staging?

Hey everyone,

I'm a newbie investor and I am going to start doing flips. Does anyone have any recommendations on a good real estate cpa and attorney that can help me in setting up my business and on my first deals? Thanks in advance!

Hi AJ, 

Welcome to Bigger Pockets! I am in the same situation and I recommend you read the book Long Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene. I just read it and it's excellent, it perfectly to the situation of people like you and me.

Good luck!

Hi Joe! I'm an investor in Dana Point, are you going to be hosting any other meetings or workshops?
