some have gotten loans so they are not out and out frauds like many on the internet.. but from what others have posted very expensive  ( which is OK in my book since they are doing basically 100% financing)  the rub from others though is you pay the 3k and the property for one reason or another does not meet their underwriting and your out the dough.. so its a risk.. for sure..and like I said I don't blame them but its a pretty good slick thing they got going for themselves to make 3k on your turn downs.. :)and then you try another and its another 650 one guy posted he lost close to 5k and finally gave up.. others have lost EM because the properties did not meet their criteria..also other posted that you have to front the contractor payments then get reimbursed so you need cash for that.so guess its 100% but not really.. if it was me I would find a money partner for your equity and try LIma One or lending home or Vizio those are all nice people to work with.

This is actually my second introduction on the platform and simultaneously an honesty post:I first became fascinated with real estate investing last year as a sophomore after hearing about the "wonders" of wholesaling from both an old friend a couple of internet gurus...and fell for it. 

I'm new to the Section 8 program and I've done a fair amount of internet research but still can't find definitive answers on how to apply for section 8, assuming that I need to. 

I typically use google chrome; however, I've had the same issues when using internet explorer/ firefox.

I bought a stock after I saw Cramer recommended it and I read a little on the internet.  

I have been a member of Biggerpockets for about 3 years learning very much there and because of my medical condition I spend most of my time 10 to 12 hours a day, seven days per week, on the Internet and I read a book about every two weeks. 

And I can only use internet to check the rent and I doubt how accurate the Zillow and Realtor are....

Careful on internet advice MINE INCLUDED... we are all just people..

Just as safety for myself.The internet is great so a wifi thermostat and/or video camera is good.I have my wife as an agent so when I'm not around she can do things so should not be a problem.

White towels; I put 2 per room and have another 2 per room in closet for fast change over if needed.7.Fast internet connection with a very good router for better video from camera and guest ability to stream movies.
