And the scam artists will still find the loophole and the little guy gets inconvenienced even more.

Anything I've looked at online for financing seems like a scam.

Or do I request fees in mail, then send the lease for signing...assuming they don't think I'm scamming them.

I am scared at the same time as where I go for help, I sense scam and rip off.

The fact they're willing to roll the fees into the loan amount make me feel like they're not a scam.

I'm very much in the early stages but plan on continuing to read as much materials as I can, and of course have already begun listening to the BP podcasts.Going to keep an eye out for local get-togethers as well because I hear the community here at BP is one of the finer ones you will find anywhere.If anyone from Chicago, whether it be downtown or the suburbs is ever interested in exchanging information or needs assistance (I have devoting a substantial amount of my time in this field now), please do not hesitate to contact me.

You need to see how you communicate, things in common, are they honest, judge integrity, you may not need the most successful you may want more knowledge and experience with an agent that doesn't have to beat their head in to stay afloat, they may have retired from another profession so they may have time to take more interest in you.You're looking for a personal business relationship, not a girl friend or drinking buddy, but someone who has ethical standards, knows the business is current understands investing aspects and that has time to devote attention to you.

Personally, I would focus on exhausting my free education resources while devoting time networking locally and asking questions here.

I have zero REI experience as of yet and am working to open up more time to devote to REI.Just to give you some brief background info on myself: I am a mechanical engineer and my main expertise is project management.Looking forward to connecting.

I could never understand how much effort they will expend to scam the system rather than just getting a job.
