I can't think of very many people who would turn up their nose at that.And yeah, I'm attending the closing.

From then on she couldn't stop talking about all the little children.She was a hard nose business lady and financially astute for her formal education, she had worked hard (worked in an airplane factory during the war) and had done very well with her husband who had passed away about 15 years prior.

I wish desire is all someone needs .. but it isnt .. the good news is .. if you have the desire and the discipline then everything you need to know ..from wholesaling , to flipping to tax liens to mobile home investing and mobile home parks and commercial real estate and so on .. is right here on this site .. no need for a mentor .. only a good set of eyes and ears and meybe a typing finger .. there is no need for a class or instructions other than what right here on Bigger Pockets .. the only thing a mentor might give you more of is self confidence .. thats what a lot of newbie's actually lack .. they dont even know it .. but they lack it .. its hard making that leap into the deep end with the sharks .. my suggestion is .. don't tip your toes to feel the warmth of the water , just hold your nose and jump right in .. and if you have a mentor that can teach you how to swim faster and a bit better .. then take it .. learn as much as you can until you feel like there is nothing left fir him to teach you ... then .. learn some more.. because if this guy has been at it for twenty years then he has a lot to teach ..

As you already can tell, working with an agent will mean you don't have to guide a CSR by the nose to help you, so even if it costs $100 more it's money well spent.

You then could have a fractured condo association and getting financing for potential home owners to purchase units can be tough.Generally if you go the condo route there is a blanket mortgage where the lender usually agrees that for each unit sold they reduce down the mortgage so as a percentage they might stipulate XX of proceeds per unit goes to the lender and then you keep the rest after other costs.    

My advice to you is to stick your nose in the real estate books, learn all you can.

You do not want a fractured non-performing half-built development on your land that is not producing income to you.Now if you ever go to sell the ground lease they are much harder to get loans on about 70% of NNN lenders pass on them.

Like Mike said, it the frustration from a lost deal, could distract you from another one that could be right under your nose.

You would definitely think a little old school brown-nosing would go a long way in this industry....

Of course, you can go get a loan as the new owner, take out the existing financing and completely remove the fractured interests of the previous owner.
