It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.

Insurance liability, I personally know 2 families that lost their children in home pools.

Are you referring to personal losses or other people had losses?

I have personally worked with @Wale Lawal and he is awesome.

As a disabled person, I want to be in real estate, but I know I am limited.

Congratulations on the duplex -My investor clients have acquired several multi-family investment properties locally in the market I operate in Northwest Indiana - Figure out your personal investment objective for the next 4 years and align yourself with the next property that make sense in this current market environment-

I personally have no connections with anyone who is involved in this niche and I'm wondering how other people have started their journey.
