Recently, I’ve started to view my 15-mile training runs through nearby neighborhoods as a sort of prospecting method —a foot tour of sorts— helping me determine neighborhoods I might be interested in investing in.My goal with Bigger Pockets is simple — I hope to learn from other investors within the community, leverage the tools and resources to improve my ability analyze potential deals (to help my 40-something-year-old-self gain the confidence to do what my 20 something-year-old-self knew was possible long ago) and contribute to the community where I can with the experience I have.  

I honestly like these methods better considering the amount of flexibility you have with negotiating. 

I just started my research and am educating myself on all the various methods of real estate investing.

What method of action do you recommend to find a lender?

Instead of putting money into a retirement account and losing general control of it, why not look for alternative methods to reduce current year passive losses and tap into prior year suspended passive losses? 

If anyone uses any other method I am sure we would all like to know.

Or do they only refi up to a certain %.I am a bit confused about this method does anyone have an in depth guide to how this works?

My plan is to learn use the finance experience and relationships I build through them to learn how to do wholesaling and rehab methods and start doing deals myself.

Either they are a fool or you are, or perhaps both, but not neither.I won't even begin to get into the gaping flaws in your logic about valuation ... that shows either ignorance on real estate valuation or an attempt to artificially pump up values using valuation methods that are not valid.

Does anyone know the best method in which I can pursue or find buyers?
