Unfortunately, getting a 20 or 30 year fixed, fully amortized commercial loan seems to be a pipe dream.

I am looking to build closer ties to folks who actually do what I dream to do and right here in WA, so it is nice to meet you and all the good folks here!

They're selling you a dream.

My dream would be to form a partnership each contributing $100,000 for a million+ real estate investment deal.

Example, don't put granite in as if its your dream house only to rent it out to tenants who don't care.If you want, post questions here and you'll get tons of different opinions.

This is not because I haven't kept up with the rents, it is because the best way to maximize rent is to vacate the property and redo it.This just so happens to be a property manager's dream and aligns perfectly with their customers.

"they are good at giving reasons why they should be paid upfront something however (usually they tell us in will increase chances)"They are full of crap.Buyers are hungry for real lenders who can perform.If you are a mortgage broker with real lenders you will make plenty at closing.If people are looking for 100% loans and all this other type of exotic stuff it really doesn't exist unless you have a property worth say 2 million that you can get for 1 million but even then you have points and closing costs.It's all a pipe dream and buyers need to not fall for the scammers traps.They know these buyers are wanting to buy into a large deal above their means and "hit it big".They suck out the 10k to 15 they have or more selling a dream and then do not fund.

Keep in mind, I was actually selling at market value, not some inflated pipe dream.

Through it all, there are a few key points I've come to believe: everything exists for me as a possibility (and I mean... everything) and if you can dream it, the mind can help you accomplish it.

Should I take it and pursue my real estate dreams?
