On the other hand Jimmy is right..having a buyers list give an investor a clearer Idea of what and where to look..So as Investors...we have to find a happy medium between the two.

Certainly, most conventional lenders (the large and medium sized banks that give loans) are going to be fine with a co-borrower, as long as the combined finances of the borrowers meets their guidelines.

You need to promote your website as much as you can through as many mediums as you can.

I believe it has to do with the fact that private funding sources are not the type you would normally find on an internet forum.From my experience, private money is something you'd find in close proximity to a particular deal, and more often than not, by word of mouth and/or by visiting local real estate investment groups.While there may be people who look to sources like BP to invest their money, it isn't your typial medium for private money.

I would try to find a couple local medium to large buy-sell investors (10+ deals a year) and partner with them.

Have some vacants I am reconditioning to rent out.Looked at carpet.Found a happy medium at .80 sq ft.and 8 pound plush scotch guard pad at .85 sq ft.This is at Home Depot with a very low installation fee of around 35 bucks.Conversely found 12 by 12 ceramic tile for .56 sq ft.My thought process is too install the tile all the way through on the main floor and use carpet just on the stairs and the 2 bedrooms upstairs.Has vinyl down stairs now but actually cost more than tile and get ripped and messed up.Tile would seem to take more abuse and last longer.I can get cheap berber type carpet for .48 sq ft and cheap 6 pound pad for about.49 sq ft. but I am trying to make it look nicer and not cheap.This is why I wanted to spend a little more on a nicer pound foam pad versus rubber composite.I asked about the Home Depot bid room and the sale person said he could submit but the bids are getting rejected as the carpet is already priced so low.Says HD is getting away from the contractor bidding wars to try and get the price down etc.I checked with prices versus Dalton Ga (carpet capital of the world and the prices were just as good or better.HD is measuring the units for free for me tomorrow.On the tile how much is the grout and the bonding agent for the tiles to the floor??

In the FOMC statement they say "The Committee currently anticipates that economic conditions--including low rates of resource utilization and a subdued outlook for inflation over the medium run--are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels for the federal funds rate at least through mid-2013."

I need to get a list of all the medium/big sized commercial players in St.

What internet medium, what is your exact goal, who are your prospects...etc.

If you put them on the wall, they need to be about a hand's width below the ceiling level.Good Luck,Mike
