Getting into REI as a way to leave the rat race and live a more family and friend filled life.

I did just broker a .9% deal I sold off market in Chicago and this is a good area with $1400+ rents a unit so making friends with realtors and having them send you stuff before hits MLS is an option too.

All I knew to do was to call the pool company (who the PM introduced me to) to see if it was them. 

And they would be introduced by very different professionals.  

Hi Kris,The NAR settlement finalized on August 17, 2024, introduced important changes to how real estate commissions are handled.

@Sureen HariTX has high property taxes and CA has tenant friendly laws.

When I used to do this, my money friend provided all the money, I provided everything else, everything.

Private money lending typically comes from individual investors or friends and family, often based on personal relationships and trust, and can have more flexible terms.

A friend of mine scored her dream home last month.
