To me real estate also lends itself toward allowing one to construct separate partnerships for each deal using joint ventures.

I don't venture out of the city much - feel free to shoot me anything you run across here (or close suburbs) and I'll take a look.I'll also shoot you a PM, I saw a place yesterday that may be worth a look.

Basically I just signed up for the Joint Venture program with Richard Roop who leans towards owner financing using creative strategies and a long term hold approach.

And if sh** hits the fan with your venture, you've got a solid base of skills plus a degree to fall back on while you put your life back together for a second attempt.

They are "equal" partners in this venture, and as such each has a responsibilty to the others to not commit "waste".2.

i'm currently in the process of buying a 2 family home with 2 additional store fronts. this is my first venture into real estate investment so please excuse me. the property is listed on Zillow.com for $191000 the owner has agreed to $90000 in as is condition. the est. cost to rehab the property is $60000. i will be doing alot of the work myself so that price will be coming down closer to $35000. my question is if it is possible to setup the financing to get cash on hand for the repairs or does the money have to go into escrow. thank you for your time.

I had nearly $200K liquid invested in a venture and found myself in an unforeseen situation and needed the capital quickly.

Or you set up a joint venture (JV) where you take the point initially as the prospect called you.

(not cheap) and have enough equity in it to start a venture off into a market where real estate is still affordable.

We are thinking of doing a few more fixer uppers before venturing off into the rental business to get our capital up.
