I'm not a seasoned flipper but I am a business man. As

Always wanted to invest my own money but was researching buying and selling and acting as the 'straw man' as you put it.Ok Bill, so when you say:"If you are borrowing funds giving a collateral interest in or to the financial instrument, you are then floor planning an inventory and acting as a business if you sell the asset."

What is a " real business email"Is that something that differentiates someone whom is in the business to be the man as opposed to being a business man?

If only every tenant I ever get is like that, I will die a happy man! As

I am also incredulous that a strapping young man with plenty of advantages can only see a poor struggling 80 year old man as disgraceful freeloader.

BACKGROUNDFor the last couple years, we've had one single private lender that we've partnered on rehab projects with.But after reading and watching Alan Cowgill's material, we decided to host a luncheon, so that we can take on more projects.After speaking with our Accountant, attorney, and speaking to the SEC, we purchased a mailing list of local Accredited Investors, and sent over 1000 of them very nice, professionally-done invitations to our luncheon.We even hired a company to man a toll free line so that we could accept RSVP's 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.The luncheon was held at a very expensive, 5-star hotel in our area.THE PROBLEMOnly one attendee showed up.We're thinking about giving it another try.

Go get 'em man! As

To consider any property you should have at least one reliable contact in the area to take pictures at the very least. next I would need a handy man, a contractor and a realtor.

I started working for "the man" a few years ago, right after the crash of the market.

In theory there is a mortgage or deed of trust somewhere that has this man as the grantor and the bank as the grantee.
