Best bet would be to participate in a local REIA and find a real estate attorney who is familiar with REI practices to look over your contracts.

Looking for funds, partners, or JV participants, hard money lenders, private lenders, etc.

I've recently started participating in Milwaukee REIA events, so I can't speak to how helpful they would be.

I've been doing a lot of reading, participating on BP, and have fallen victim to "Analysis Paralysis".

It would be most useful if they could also participate in a walk-through when I look at a property for purchase (and of course, I will compensate them fairly for the walk-through).I am new to the Houston area and introduced myself to the BP community a few weeks back.

One of the things that you could do is to take 'Participant Loan' tax and penalty free and use those funds outside of a retirement account (not available with SDIRA).

Nice to see more participation from the Pacific Northwest.

Participate in the forum as much as possible as you never know who you'll meet.

Being open and turning your sales meeting into a "partnership" of participation involves the customer in a more active role to facilitate the transaction.

You'll have only two participants, you and your wife.
