Good Morning folks! I know it’s early, but I have a question lol. Does earnest money really have to be in form of a check?

Are cashier’s check and money orders valid?
Thanks In advance.

Hello Tom Goans Correct, I do not buy properties. My agreement states with the seller that I have 30 days to provide a buyer for the property.

Hey Jeremy Merwarth Yeah, I know what you’re saying even though a deal seems solid anything could pop up, unfortunately.

Thanks guys!

You guys are awesome! Lol Mitch Hyett Thank you for the welcome and the advice guys. I can’t wait to share some knowledge and soak up some great info as well. I was always taught to reach your goals in life you have to help some folks reach their goals. Give me a holler at anytime:-)

Thanks again!

Hey guys, quick question once I have a property under contract, should I contact the title company and start preliminary title work.

Or, should I wait until a buyer is in place, then, contact Title Company? Thanks in advance.

Will do!

Hello Bigger Pockets!
My name is Sean Broughton; I am from Hyattsville, MD (right outside of DC). I'm 29, currently doing tech support for an insurance company, living here in Philadelphia PA.
You guys are awesome! I’ve been lucky enough to be surrounded by like-minded people who love business and investing. I kept myself busy in different industries and have always been intrigued by real estate investing. I stumbled on this site and was immediately impressed with the quality of discussion of the bigger pockets community. I am excited to get into some of these conversations.

I'm planning on attending my first REIA meeting Thursday and am really excited at the prospect of being around fellow real estate investors.
I would love to find somebody I can help and they could help me as a mentor. Whether that's through providing my resources, networks, running errands, or unskilled labor if it's something I can do I am ready to do it. I believe the more people you help reach their goals the more people will help you reach your goals!
See you around the forums!
