Which ever market you choose will depend on your strategy and how involved you are going to be.

I understand they are using a promissory note, But have you thought about getting some kind of legal opinion before getting involved with that option.

Just about everybody (including) myself was involved in RE back then.

Be involved with your management company and realtor until you completely feel comfortable.

Share out stories about each of the deals you've done, projects that you've underwritten and passed on (and reasons why) so that prospective PMLs within your social network can see what you're doing and pique their interest in getting involved.

The plan involves a common wall connected to the house.Any advice would be much appreciated!

Most investors recommend that I not have agents involved.

I have worked on many transactions involving Estates and looking to build a relationship with attorneys and provide my expertise. 

Before long JKV will be on the radar of all the major title underwriters and their title agents will need underwriter permission to close deals in which they are involved.

All my deals are off market, no realtor involved.
