So to be to clear I will just use some numbers and a fake scenario.I find a deal, $1000000 for a 24 unit apartment and the down payment is going to 250000.But I all I have is earnest money, so I need a either a hard money lender or private lender.  

I came across rentigo.com today and it looks promising.

I promise you will make several great connections through MIG.  

Harder for people to be fakes when they can't hide behind a computer.  

Go to where cash buyers work....at the courthouse steps buying at foreclosure auctions.If you see a guy bid on and/or buy more than one property,they are or work for cash buyers with lots of investment cash or lines of credit.Walk up to them after the auction and compliment them on their property purchases and offer to bring them more just like it before they get to the auctions.Ask for their criteria (sizes,locations,ages,numbers of bedrooms,condition,etc).Promise to follow up with them ASAP with a property they might like to inspect and purchase.Go to every courthouse you can get to in a few hours driving and you could easily create a list of 30 to 40 real professional cash buyers who act fact and know what they're doing to be profitable in this business.

I think more than anything else that bums me out is that these properties were bought well and promised to have good profit margins, but due to my own laziness my lunch got eaten by someone else.

I'm going to sell this lot to someone who will build on it, so I can't promise the city that I will build on it, though maybe I could say that a new house WILL be built on it.

By placing a ghost ad(fake ad) for a property you have for sale on Craigslist.

It always end up too much promise and false statements and not much responsibility.

Pictures look promising. 2.
