Joshua Dorkin - the courses I've taken haven't been related to wholesaling, but include John Schaub on rentals, Bill Bronchik on partnering, and Susan Lassiter-Lyons on joint venturing.My previous investing career consisted of rentals - three-plex, duplex, single fam, mobile home.

I'm thinking NNN (fast food joints, banks, drug stores), self-storage, strip malls.

I also had a joint acct with my husband on 2 credit cards which he never paid on time ( i wasnt aware he did this)What is the first thing i need to do to fix this?

just buy the home jointly with the investor (who is a close friend) and then have a separate promissory note that says details our terms on the side?

So you'll have to apply jointly with her.

I think Goose Creek and North Charleston would be good rental markets as there is a both a USAF and a Navy base (well now they are called joint bases but you know what I mean) within 10 minutes of each other.

Demand will be strong at this price point as the competition will be significantly inferior quality.24 unit complex (4 buildings x 6 - 1br units) built c.1978 - end of life interior but exterior structure / mechanicals appears sound.NOI forecast at 83k.Renovation budget at $375k inc contingencyPurchase price of $250kOur Bank will go to $565k @ c.4.25% for 5 years with 25 year amortization - they hold the note for the existing owner and know he is slipping into the default zone.

He has a joint account outside of this portfolio with the same institution that is labeled/coded as the same "Prime Money Market Fund" that is just a regular MM that can be withdrawn at any time.

So, IMO for someone to sit in some title loan joint and actually make loans over the counter, without formal education in the lending arena, you'd need about 6 months to a year of experience before any manager would be rubber stamping you loans, more like a year to get a rubber stamp approval.My time lines are based on repetitious business, not doing some deal twice a month, but more like ten deals a day, 5 days a week. 200 deals a month, that means you have passed by about 1,200 loans before you have seen enough deals to guide yourself through the maze of lending at that level.RE lending will take a couple years really to be a good originator, that is not underwriting loans but walking the loan through the required process and address issues of concern, like title or appraisal issues.

To me real estate also lends itself toward allowing one to construct separate partnerships for each deal using joint ventures.
