Hhhmm.The BBB icon link takes you to reviews for Seed Consulting aka Seed Capital.  

If you don't and want to get into real estate you really need to come up with a great plan on how to start.High paying W-2, filed taxes the past two year, great credit score, seed money and reserves. 

I would probably take out a mortgage on the property to pay them back (interest rates are very low right now vs who knows what they will be a few years down the road), and take the $40Kish that is left over to seed your next investment property.

The idea of Mansfield is very interesting-so thanks for planting that seed!

So, now you can see that you need to spend some time figuring your niche and what you'd like to focus on, after that, pick an area where your seed capital can go further if that means the area is outside of Palm Beach, be ready for that. 

I would say as Matt did, that be hesitant to post about any monetary amount that you can front will "typically" bring some bad seeds out that are just intrigued by the figure and don't care about you.

I found this article rather fitting for this discussion - I'm the local with the stance of the Idahoans in this article - so I guess it depends on perspective - rising prices is a curse and a blessing.We have so many dead towns in KS and across the great plains with some awesome old houses and good people - Maybe if anything this next revolution will get people back to small towns and help revive them -- So hopeful Elon Musk's Starlink internet service and perhaps an incentive from the govt along with a new attitude that Work from home or anywhere for that matter can be good for a businesses bottom line and morale - maybe the winds of change could help seed a rebirth in rural America.  

I'm putting this out there now to plant a seed for the near future.

That deal was the seed money to where I am today at 37 in business.
