Have a conference call to iron it out?  

Hi Alain, I just posted in another thread about organizing a BP get together before the next CIIQ conference: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/86/topics/350341-real-estate-club-in-montreal-ottawa-cornwall?

@Nicole Richards Many of the answers you are looking for can be found here: How to Effectively Conduct Joint Venture Agreements as a Real Estate Investor596231-how-do-i-properly-construct-a-purchase-with-a-partnership591376-create-an-llc-for-first-partnership-best-way-to-do-so526244-taking-on-partner-s-and-limiting-our-liabilitesGood luck!

That itself was worth the cost of the conference for me.

Keep a few things in mind: 1) Some lenders do have a 'seasoning' period, although mine was only 6 months and it wasn't an issue for them; 2) Your lender WILL conduct an appraisal (which you may or may not have to pay for depending on lender) to determine a new, current value; 3) They will lend an amount to you based on a total LTV (loan to value).

The call was a conference with the Zillow rep and a property evaluation specialist in the local area who provided the details of the final offer.

As most of the people on here have already stated, keep using this website as a resource, and get out there and network as much as you can at any local events you may hear of since there are plenty (although beware of buying into some scam type conferences out there).

The problem with that is they are trashing the place they are conducting illegal activity they are not even real tenants !

I was in LA last month for a conference..

You can conduct the RE activity on your own name to qualify for the deduction.
