Hi everyone, I just joined and wanted to say how amazing this community is; anyone can see that, even from browsing the discussions.As of now I have not ventured into the investment side of real estate, mostly because of a lack of capital to get started, but will be checking out all the tips and tricks to get that foot in the door.

@Angela Yan , I am looking into other real estate ventures out side of the buy and hold portfolio.

I had tried Canada post a few years ago (for a different type venture), they only offered a mass mailer type campaign for neighbourhoods/communities.

Find someone to joint venture with.

Basically you are doing a Joint Venture with the seller. 

I dont see where the Joint Venture is?

I own 20 properties, and a few other residual business ventures allowing me to be semi-retired at age 40 and I started a lot later then you.

I have done over 100 deals without any of my own money and credit so you dont need funds to start.The other thing you can start doing is start looking for money partners to joint venture with.

I would like to know which state would be a great idea to start out and then venture next.

@Igor Messano Thanks for the clarification...there is no constant here...you're in the hands of the association...typically most condo owners simply own what's between the 4-walls...failing structure has nothing to do with you, but at the same time it has everything to do with you.I think this is just a step-by-step path that you are already venturing down.
