I can't do RE full time right now but would like to continue working towards that.

There are a lot of different ways to do RE.

I’m familiar with the area and do RE Appraisals all over Western Nc.

Do RE attorneys also do asset protection or is that a separate part of law?

I talk to my REI club members about the assets you need to do RE investing.

I think you will find that many, many BP people here work full time and do RE on the side.

Is your goal to eventually do RE full-time, or would you like to continue in your current job, as well?

That is from the federal side and is applicable to all loans, consumer, commercial, private, institutional, any note.Next, you get involved with a borrower using that money, controlling business or influencing operational decisions you are stepping outside the lending arena and taking on new liabilities that can place your funds at risk if there is any failure.Another comment, any fee paid that is required to be paid to obtain any loan is a cost that must be accounted for in settlements, there are a number of underlying laws depending on the type of loan but all loans and associated costs will be an issue under the tax code.There are thousands of attorneys out there I'm sure that do RE and think they know financing laws and regulations, they may have done them for years, doesn't mean they really know and most will never admit not knowing.Every bank I've seen had an attorney, all have legal advice and as I mentioned, there won't be a bank or any other lender around, that really makes loans that won't have some compliance issue.

Hi Zoe, I am a Renatus affiliate, the great thing about Renatus is it is a community of REI's and everyone networks to get educated and do RE deals together.
