I ask from an ignorance perspective -- what's unfair about the commercial loan game and how does a mentor help?

Hi Y'all:I'm exploring the possibility of getting into Transactional Funding and would love to hear your experiences from both the lender and borrower perspective.

When people take advice on here, they need to consider all things involved and not run with one perspective.

Looking at this from this perspective just scared the hell out of me.

Appreciate you taking the time to outline these thoughts.I have not spoken to local lenders or contractors yet, as I'm still in the preliminary stages of evaluating the opportunity from a numbers perspective. 

So my perspective on how to get started may be different than others who are professional wholesalers (100% of what they do is wholesale).

From my perspective this is the end of mom and pop rentals.

From a $ perspective you get the same amount of appreciation, depreciation, loan pay down, but here you have cashflow and if if a tenant moves out, you are only 50% vacant instead of 100% vacant.- Generally the same logic applies as above.  

From a tax perspective if i am a passive investor how do i stand to gain from deprciation?

Based on your response Katee you clearly have not read through my comments in any detail or tried to understand my perspective or concerns.
