The govt has told us, indirectly, that QE is here to stay.  

The law exists to protect the public from predatory behavior, not to prevent them from voicing their experience or opinion.The Virginia Supreme Court defines the "practice of law" as: One is deemed to be practicing law whenever.(1) One undertakes for compensation, direct or indirect, to advise another not his regular employer, in any matter involving the application of legal principles to facts or purposes or desires.(2) One, other than as a regular employee acting for his employer, undertakes, with or without compensation, to prepare for another legal instruments of any character, other than notices or contract incident to regular course of conducting a licensed business(3) One undertakes, with or without compensation, to represent the interest of another before [a tribunal, as hereinafter defined in UPC 1-1,] otherwise than in the presentation of facts, figures, or factual conclusions, as distinguished from legal conclusions, by an employee regularly Ö employed on a salary basis, or by one specially employed as an expert in respect to such facts and figures when such presentation by such employee or expert does not involve the examination of witnesses or preparation of pleadings.Virginia UPL Opinion 48. http://www.vsb.org/site/regulation/virginia-upl-opinion-48So, don't advise people on the law for money, don't prepare legal documents and don't attempt to represent people in courts or tribunals in Virginia without a license and you're not breaking any laws.Indeed, the very purpose of this community is to advise each other.

In truth, BP is either directly or indirectly responsible for 90% of my business, so it's time well spent.After lunch, I tend to spend the whole afternoon on the phone.

No need to examine where the proceeds went.If you don't redeposit the funds into an institution within 60 days of the indirect rollover, the entire amount is treated as a withdrawal and includable in taxable income.That 60 days passes quicker than most think. 

The people on BP or people involved in RE always seem willing to help even in direct competition. 

Do not figure deals in summary do all Diect and indirect expenses.I am 59 years old and I found BP about 6 months ago and I am still trying to decide what to do.  

This is a good strategy.http://www.dallas-ecodev.org/We have a 320 unit apt community in north Dallas that we are in a capital raise right now and although not the most important factor for why we are selecting this market / project, having Toyota building / relocating it North American headquarters 10m away is a catalyst for direct 4,500 jobs / 1,000 indirect jobs in the area and is something that definitely is a positive to the deal.

Lowering the the cost and not taking the commission would only cut into the margins.Doesn't all rents cover tax and insurance indirectly?

@Patrick Wu, real estate crowdfunding can be a great choice for investors like you who don't want to be involved in direct property management.  

@Alex G. through my research and conversations with those in the business, your reference to Anti-Predatory Lending: Title XIV of the Dodd Frank Act applies to MORTGAGE ORIGINATION an addresses Mortgage Originators (Definition of “Mortgage Originator”The Mortgage Reform Act defines a “mortgage originator”as “any person who, for direct or indirect compensation or gain, or inthe expectation of direct or indirect compensation or gain: (i) takes aresidential mortgage application; (ii) assists a consumer in obtainingor applying to obtain a residential mortgage loan; or, (iii) offers ornegotiates terms of a residential mortgage loan.”Mobile homes are PERSONAL PROPERTY, not REAL PROPERTY, thus we do not create a mortgage note.
