If you're coming to the Cash Flow game on Weds I can quickly chat with you about this, if not feel free to reach out. 

As a side, I don't currently have any money of my own to contribute since I'm in the middle of planning a wedding and my credit score is around 678.

I'm not sure which REI avenue you are interested in, but as an example, spending funds on a proper flip will result in additional capital made that could be spent on debt paydown, while spending funds on debt paydown will not yield any return.Just make sure that you both are EXTREMELY confident and well-versed in the avenue you choose, or build a partnership for your first venue, as a bad investment equates to even worse debt!

I ran into my parents neighbor at my sisters wedding and asked him if he was interested in selling his 4 plex.

Also I have an expensive wedding to pay for and the deadline is approaching fast! 

Given the right venue- it would be a very positive experience.  

Mini Venue - Promoting Concerts is one of my specialties, and I would love to combine that with real estate.

I have done professional photography early in my career (wedding photography and video).

Hey Tom,We’re going to tour a venue next week to see if it would be a good meeting space.

I've been contacting venues in the area to see where we can host the event.
