How long is the cooling off period between capital raises to avoid being tagged as a trader and requiring licensing?

One was in Garbage,, one in court reporting.. .one took a company public.. the other Japanese development family big interests in hawaii ( so that is real estate)....

Many people will tell you go for a Japanese model car because they are more reliable, and they are right, most are.

We have some of the most authentic Asian food around -- Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino... 

And by the way this is 11 studios in a B- neighborhood, within 0.5 miles you have cafes, nice bars and restaurants; within 1.5 miles you have Starbucks, Trader Joe's, etc. so the location is great, hence why we might accept a lower return... or I'm just making excuses because I still like it and we're trying to figure out a way to make it work!

If you are available I would really appreciate the facetime or meetup.As for the question earlier about japanese houses, they usually are not built to last very long due to the earthquakes and weather here.

In theory all of those things work.. in reality they rarely do if your not in the business full time IE  an agent or broker.. on the street level .and its regional as hell .. in some markets you can trade real estate like a used car broker you can buy properties for 5 to 20k each and do something with them.in other markets that is not enough money for a earnest money deposit .. so market matters.. your goals matter of course and your ability to capture capital or financing.Keep in mind Brandon is and has invest at least in the beginning when he used to actually participate on the forums.. in a little town on in central coastal Wa. that was basically dead and dying timber AG fishing town.. and properties were not expensive and you had motivated sellers.. he was not in Seattle..

It's like you want to be shown how to be a good Horse Trader?

Some chevy or japanese id say dummy all the way and go back to school.
