Were you able to find any "low hanging fruit" deals that fit your criteria for your business?

Hi Jason, many schools in Orange are also highly rated.

@Lelith Walker First thing to understand is that hard money and private money are like apples and oranges, two completely different beasts.

An email inquiry to the local city or county would probably be fruitful   I don't know about other counties,  but king county has several books/pamphlets that focus on fair housing best practices.   

@Marc Middleton, @Mark Taliercio & @Caleb Heimsoth,On this topic, look at this as if you were a BP Investor wanting to learn about REAL money saving strategies being shared by a Florida Mortgage Broker.We all know that the 3 points in home equity that the seller is offering to give away to ANY buyer agent that brings a qualified buyer is out there for the taking, like a low hanging big, fat, juicy apple...or Orange in Florida! 

I know they're out there because I find 'em, but not one a week or one a month because all the low-hanging fruit has been harvested.If you are truely 'fascinated' by this business you may need to relocate.

So, why should you use GAAP, to reflect the true nature of your financial position, so everyone can compare apples to apples, not oranges.

If you are willing to adjust the business model, I'd be interested in as much of Orange County as you have available.

I am sorry to have to leave it, and move to the beach in Orange County, CA.

Hello @Laela Tec there is a meetup group in the North Orange County area (Yorba Linda/Anaheim Hills area), also one in Riverside.
