An instructor can make it better, but most are online now anyway.

I've bought a ton of homes pre-foreclosure and at auction, happy to be a resource on that stuff, plus we just launched Bid Pirate, which is the one place online for NH, where you can see all the upcoming foreclosure auctions in one spot - you can learn a lot from the regulars at the auctions........ get after it, sister!

Oregon saw it that way as well.. many folks got cease and desist using guru on line training techniques this just formalizes the activity and levels the playing field and gives both buyers and sellers a mechanism to get out of deals and or have a regulator step in..

I'm looking to do a cash out refi on a duplex I have, but I cannot find any reviews online or much of an online presence for them.

One tip is to start looking into meetups to connect with investors / others in the REI game (in person/online).

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

I've been doing my own bookkeeping on Quickbooks online and it doesn't take too long. 

The FF rates in my zipcode are higher than I expected and their quality is less than what I'm bringing online! 

@Matt Wan Many lenders require wet signatures on at least the Promissory Note but if yours does not, as a US citizen you could do the entire signing anywhere on the planet with a good internet connection + mic + camera via Remote Online Notarization (RON) for less than $200.If wet signatures are required, the answer then depends upon what foreign country you are in.

This is expensive but you'll have a place to work and meet with people when you're in town that matches your online presence.
