I have had a few interesting conversations with 2-3 people in my circle of influence that want to participate in REI, specifically my recent success, but they are both gun-shy in committing to any specific "complex" real estate deal, and have sub-$5,000 amounts they are wanting to commit.Without getting too much into the minutia of their mindsets and arguments, it is important to note that they are willing to give a much smaller amount of money for advertising and, in return, are expecting a faster, albeit, higher risk return through wholesale deals obtained during that time frame.My actual question for you is: have you ever structured any kind of private funding "deal" that officially goes towards your marketing in exchange for a piece of the net profits for (insert time period)?

It will show you where all the certain crimes are committed. 

Now, I'm 24, so I could feel that age gap :) I decided to try that business out just like you, because it sounds interesting, easy and like it doesn't commit you much.

Again, you’re taking a risk and committing mortgage fraud.

Anthony,While I admire your hard work and commitment to pay off your debts, it seems with the refinancing of your BRRR you simply traded short term debt for more long term debt. 

But humans react differently to things they commit to in-writing.

It depends on the kind of reputation you have, and or create for yourself.My thought process is based on trust, knowledge of their market and property investing in general, commitment to me and their other clients and follow through.

@John Matthew Johnston without committing fraud.

Remember, investing in a property is on average at least a 5 year commitment.

Anything outside those three options is fraud...and I don't think you came on a public forum, using your full name, to ask us how to commit fraud.
