I’ve heard that a debt settlement attorney can help negotiate with creditors to reduce the total amount owed, which sounds appealing, but I'm a bit unsure if the cost is worth it, especially since some charge high fees.Has anyone here worked with a debt settlement attorney?

With closing costs the total amount is $110,000.

As a hypothetical, let's say there's a syndication seeking capital....Total capitalization $30M, Equity raise $10M....clearly this falls within the boundaries of where a family office, private equity etc. check writer would become involved if the deal has merit.

Flipping can be feasible in one area for years and be a total bust the next year when every project comes in at a loss.

By the time they are done the end price they paid was pretty much the same price of a totally custom home design... 

There is NO registry for Trusts (like there is for LLC's and Corp's) so you get total privacy of ownership...which is your first line of defense when it comes to crazy tenants and contingency fee lawyers (and their dead-beat clients).

But you are totally right, both of us will be wrong, but wrong by how much?

@David Jenkins @Stephen Anderson I totally agree that the Multifamily Investing Academy with Charles Dobens is one of the best Real estate courses out there.  

I totally get where you’re coming from, especially with the timeline in mind. 

In other words, let's say you buy a property where the total value is $200,000 and, of that, the structure value is $80,000 and the dirt is $120K, then you are only allowed to rehab the property for no more than $40,000 (50% of the $80K).
