Hello a little new to the scene here but love the community!

If curious for some behind the scenes stuff, we talk about it as if it's "Fannie Mae's money," but typically there are other secondary market investors that'll pay a little more than Fannie for loans that happen to be above her minimum standards.

I've found that knowing and networking within the local RE scene is important.  

Mahalia Kennedy with Appalachian Realty is excellent- fairly new on the scene, but backed up by some 20+ year investors who mentor her, and the only realtor I've ever worked with who returns calls and emails and hasn't yet made a major mistake on a contract. 

Sadly, with the plethora of new note investors on the scene, they are bidding those up to 60 cents on the dollar and guaranteeing they will lose money if they have to FC and try to sell it, only a rehabber will buy it for what they paid, or less.....

Hi everyone, my wife and I are new to the whole real estate investing scene but is something we're planning for in the coming years.

I asked him what he thought of the neighborhood--he told me he wouldn't let his 2yr old daughter come through it.3) One of the mid-flips we visited turned out to be a robbery in progress (the PM astutely noted that previous work that had been completed was now just about undone by neighborhood thugs--she had to call her construction team to get on the scene)4) Upon leaving Indy, I told Clayton and his team I was interested in only his B properties (none of which I got to see) and could they send me some to look at.

This is a substantial error and sets the scene for thousands in lost rent and lawyer's fees to get them out.

Checking out the scene in BP.

Being Im new to this whole real estate development scene, I could really use some recommendations on structuring this potential partnership.As always, thanks everyone for the advice!
