You should join the new mastermind commercial group through this site.Good luck at ISU and with your investing career!

Information is the first step in the process.The rules are too complicated for me to sort out but what my legal master mind group tells me is that the lenders are full of sh-- and they can make no such stipulation that is binding.First, in a short sale they are not the owners so are not able to use any of the exceptions to the "prohibition against restraints on alienation" (this is legal mumbo jumbo for "I say you can't sell it after you buy it")As a lender they may be able to provide funding under certain conditions but in a short sale they are not the lender either.This does get more complicated when Fannie or Freddie or the short sale investor but the rules still apply.Second, many investors mistakenly don't put this up front in their contracts, (I only just learned this technique myself from people I met on this website).see below.."

Good RE attorneys should be part of your master mind group and inner circle...people you can trust for their smarts and expertise, and also that you can trust for their loyalty and integrity.

It is important to have a team that you can mastermind with.

I've attended a meeting of the "RE Mastermind" club on Meetup.com, and found it was essentially a recruiting tool for an overpriced RE course that the members try to refer you to, so they can earn a referral bonus to pay off their debt from their bad deals that they undertook as a result of the training they overpaid for.

Hi Kim, You may want to find a mastermind group.

I just got back from the area in which I hosted a mastermind meetup.

The criteria for the invite may be based on the number of deals the investor has done along with the amount of influence and overall reputation, number of votes...The value will be the mastermind group itself, along with the potential money that can be made by being in the Pro community of real players.

The kind of networking I do, is very unique- I run a networking club that meets in small groups to "mastermind", share information, and this is important: we meet in a format where we can ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE.

$66k is obnoxious and is in line or even high for high level master mind groups for very experienced investors.
