Hi All,I am in a three way equity position in a buy and hold.

A private investigator or skip tracer might help but actually I'm not sure throwing more money out to find him would payoff as the authorities will be looking for him popping up.If it were me, I'd post the guy's name and company name stating the facts, it would certainly give notice to others and he's in no position to do anything if you state the true facts.

You wouldn't use as s Corp unless you're earning salary type income from say a consulting business.I'm not a lawyer, theses are just my preferences.

You are entitled to a free copy of credit report once a year (from each bureau) but the only way to really know your "score"- the magic number the lenders use- is to go to myfico.com and pay for it .It doesn't sound to me that you're in that bad a position, actually!

but I'm married to a career Navy guy so this was our last, chosen, stop before he retired in October.I am a physician looking to replace most of my clinical salary so I can practice as much, or as little, as I'd like...while healthcare figures out what it's going to do with itself.

Is this a place that you and your team can bring something positive to?

As you're on the loans, they'll count them towards your DTI, however, if you have 2 years of tax returns showing positive income, it should actually help your DTI ratios.

Would love some advice as to best way to attack REI from here, looking to buy n hold but would have exit strategies as flipping/wholesaling if the property made sense for that option.Reading and learning as much as possible but I feel I am in a position to start acting!

I just don't see how you could ever make money unless you had a huge down payment or wanted to buy and hold and hope for appreciation many years down the road.The positive aspect about this town is it seems to be quite stable, real estate has leveled out and is actually turning around here quickly.

Most people like a job that pays a salary.
