I found myself most comfortable working for the real estate fund, focusing on international hotels, and have since developed more than an interest in real estate investment, management and valuation.I hope to be able to learn enough that I can teach and inspire future new members however, right now, I am brand new to the industry and am keen to expand my knowledge of the real estate market.If anyone has any questions, recommendations or lessons to share then please do not hesitate to contact me.

And the firms that had funds in escrow, teams of lawyers, and reams of paper backing their guarantees - like Lehman Brothers - sometimes don't compare to a seasoned operator with decades of street cred in the business that has everything to lose if they don't do what they say.I share this example not to pitch our firm (there are doubtless a number of others like us out there who are legitimate), but to demonstrate that there is a workable business model for long-term guarantees that works for both parties.

@Steve Babiak is knowledgable about PA and keen about best practices.

Most serious tenants are very keen.

I just wasn't keen on loaning him the full amount

Some loan officers are not too keen on this and Quit Claim Deeds were used to bridge gaps of skill and knowledge in the boom.
