Remember, each state establishes it's own reg and exemptions.In the end, I guesss your best bet would be to seek legal advise before pursuing PL for funding your deals.

However I bet money most of them are just looking for a cheap house and aren't investors.I dunno.

Like all cash just said non competes dont do a whole lot in RE.I have a feeling what the dad is wanting is not a non compete for one deal, I bet he is wanting you to sign something so you don't compete at ALL in your area.

I'll place my bet on loss of revenue for someone!

But I do bet hubby becomes much more supportive when your "dream" pays the bills in the house.

For each catergory of expense make a column to enter the individual expenditures and have the SUM into the "cell" that corresponds to that type.For rehabs I did the same thing.

Contractors that attend these meetings and set up tables advertising their services are a good bet.

I personally think a combination of a quick income producing strategy and a steady income strategy are the best bet to develop wealth in real estate

You best bet will always be to track down motivated sellers directly.
