I'd be happy to provide some recommendations and suggestions for your situation as a foreign citizen living in Miami.First, it's important to have a good understanding of the local real estate market, including pricing trends and neighborhood dynamics.

However, help me understand.

My current goal is to analyze properties for potential deals on BP pro daily and start wrapping my head a general understanding of the process. 

Being a broker myself, I can attest to the incredible value you can bring to clients by understanding not only the brokering side of things, but the application of those funds. 

Valuing your time and understanding your limits and skills will make a big difference in the equity you build, the quality of the work and your sanity. 

The lender rep or broker you are working with should be able to walk you through each step so you have a firm understanding of what has to happen in order to get your file to closing. 

The more you understand the local market, the more value you can bring to a mentor.Stay persistent and consistent.

@Jaycee Greene - Thank you for following up!

Most importantly, understand the difference between a business purpose and consumer purpose loan.Read my post in this thread, which details our process in actionable terms.

my understanding is partial payment starts the process all over again.
