I have a friend how's trying (hard to sell) to sell this house on a dead end private street in natick MA, how can I judge that this house is worthy or not to invest, any investor interested on this location? 

Hello everyone,my name is Dimitry Adonis. i am new to biggerpockets as you can tell by my post title. i am currently employed as a Financial Analyst at a major financial institution in the New England area.

Im looking more towards the commercial side of development, however you may find "Professional Real Estate Development" and "Real Estate Development - Principles and Process" by the Urban Land Institute extremely helpful.

I'm a new investor in NYC (just moved back from living in MA for several years where I rehabbed a couple of properties).

But were do you guys get deal flow these days with SEller carry back issues as they relate to dodd frank and the qualified mortgage.Is the business now mainly about dealing with NPN from institutional sellers? 

Instead of being limited to what a particular institution or advisor sells, you can invest in anything allowed by the tax code - which includes real estate.There is a lot of good information here on BP on the topic.  

Or look for Charles Dobens from MA here on BP, he's a lawyer and real estate investor and he can tell you more.
