As the title suggests, has anyone ever had luck in tapping into a network of potential investors/friends & family money for their first investment property? 

I came across an interesting thread on when assignment fees are paid here on BP with the title Paid at Closing vs.

The title of my post is "abandonment'. 

I am looking for some advice from all the smart people on this website :)I have a family member that is offering to transfer over their home title to my wife and I.

I would also look into creating an LLC then take title with that LLC to mitigate risk. 

With both of these, it is similiar to seller financing, but a bit different, as your sister would still hold title.

Hi there, I'm curious if anyone knows of lenders that would let me perform a cashout refi without a seasoning period for me to be on title for 6 months. 

If you look at the bios of these companies, they have dozens of people filling unnecessary jobs and titles; it's hilarious.

Transferring title to a non-natural entity of any kind (IV Trust, THT, LLC, Corp., etc.) will not increase your opportunities for attractive financing and typically restrict you to the private money market (low LTV, premium rates and higher fees).

Do you have an inspector, CPA, attorney, title company to help you when you begin?
