At 6% it will take me a really long time to become financially independent!

Let being financially independent be your motivator for greater financial creativity.

If you are an independent type running around taking deals to buyers then you need to look at your state real estate laws carefully.

Is it branded or independent?

Independent contractors (like Joe's Plumbing) do that so why not you?

I am a new guy just looking to become financially independent and thinking that real estate investing will get me the best return.

One house was in pre-list stage as an REO and the bank wanted an independent value of it's worth because REO broker might show low value to sell it quick.I get there and the house is vacant but in a nice subdivision of expensive homes.

Some people are detail oriented and a little more independent and will cooperate with the process without missing details, making excuses, being late, etc.

It's just that the quantities of data have gotten bigger as computing power has increased.My first tech startup attempt was a model that would run a huge number of feature films through a system that would capture things light and sound frequencies, cut rate, and loads of other data points, then correlate that to global sales figures, then allow independent filmmakers to run THEIR film through the same program and generate marketing insights.

The Issue: I want to buy real estate leveraging OPM but have no suitable income to satisfy a lender.The Goal: Purchase cash flowing real estate without ever needing to get a full time salaried job.Where I'm at now: I am twenty three years old, just out of college and am supporting myself with different jobs [mostly hired on an independent contractor] and paid hourly.
