As they are getting paid to provide a service.

For example: We provide tax preparation and advisory services to people who invest in commercial (including multifamily) real estate, and high w2 earners investing in short-term rentals.

It can still qualify if it's a fixer-upper, as long as the rental income from the property can cover the debt service.

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

Typically if you attend any investor meetings about 1/2 the crowd in many groups are agents looking for business.If you want to network, try service clubs, alumni groups, charities, religious groups, hobby groups or whatever interests you. 

As Chris mentioned, use a licensed servicer and let them handle it. 

You could go to work for a remodeler too perhaps giving bids, selling service or see if they will train you to be on a crew.You could also go to work as an ISA for one of the big wholesalers. 

Do you use a “book” for information or an online service ?

Instead of paying into someone else’s property, you could be using that allowance to finance your own real estate investment.In Germany, you have access to a stable market with long-term growth potential, and U.S. service members and government civilians have unique advantages here.

Thank you for your service!
