Starbucks has just opened off exit 77 in Berea, London is trying to capture a second Starbucks, and 2 new restaurant chains are in the works at the exits in London....something is coming, and it's not the somewhat new Buc-ees  :) Quote from : As a BP binge listener, investor and agent, I'm curious why smaller areas of Kentucky are not receiving focus with their low land costs, & lower entry points?

Don't expect these people to have anything to do with you once the transaction is over and a lot of bitter, nasty fights along the way. 

While I did not work with other agents or lenders for this particular deal, my professional experience ensured a smooth transaction and effective project management.

Living in bumfck NH started a chain reaction that enabled me to retire modestly at 28, just 3 years later.

I remember spending entire weekends crunching numbers, gathering receipts from random shoeboxes and backtracking through countless transactions in my bank account.

Financing must be through non-recourse loans, and you must avoid prohibited transactions, such as personal use or self-dealing.

I can also document that I have over 1,000 plus real estate transactions as an agent and an investor.I had two transactions that they just kept lying and telling me and selling me you will have CTC in a week or less, From each of those points it was more than 60 days.I begged loan officer and processor to be truthful.Their failure to close in a timely manner cost me dearly.

My humble advice to anyone attempting to do creative finance is:Creative finance is for experienced investors who have access to capital if anything goes wrong.Learn the lawsDon't use a contract "off the internet", laws vary by state and are also regulated on a federal levelLearn the financing techniques correctlyDon’t skip parts of the processDon’t ever do a “kitchen table” closingUse the proper deedAn attorney can help you with the legal work, but the rest you are on your ownYour guru will not bail you out“Investing” in someone else’s deal by providing a small 2nd loan so the “investor” can pay for “cash to the seller” and for “closing costs” so he can do the deal is a very bad planKnow what problems can ariseLearn the responses and solutions to problems before they are neededKnow everything there is to know about Title and what that meansKnow who a "protected class" individual isLearn the "back doors"Learn human natureUnderstand timelinesUnderstand regulation enforcement (some of these "mistakes" have a 10 year statue of limitations ( they can charge you 10 years AFTER you do the transaction) and carry hefty fines and possible imprisonmentThe court doesn't accept "I didn't know" for an answer"Know that the source of the lead plays a serious role in some states and federallyKnow how much of a "profit" pushes the boundaries to invite an investigationYou can be sued by the seller if you don’t do things correctlyYou are automatically at fault if an investigator or attorney or regulator gets involved.

Looking for downsides from people that have used it The software that I used, perhaps more advanced three years after your AI development, because we can see the actual Investor Intellegence including more private transaction data and photo.

While I’ve been handling smaller real estate transactions for about a year and a half, I knew I needed guidance to break into this space.
