I'm not a realtor, just am trying to invest in properties (mostly furnished rentals) here and there, with a background heavily in IT.

Hi, I am looking to buy my first investment property and need advice on what questions should I ask the listing agent.First let me give you background information on the property, Bedrooms- 4, Bathroom- 2, Build- 1994, is listed as a condo.

My background, we started off doing RA near Disneyland in CA.

Hopefully some of you will find these insights useful in making determinations on where and how to invest after these devastating storms.Some background: I got my start in Real Estate in NY in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

They do conduct a background check, credit check, will check cash reserves, and will make sure the borrower is using their funds for business purpose only, but there is less emphasis on the borrower and more on the deal itself. 

Next we utilize mysmartmove.com for background/credit report.

During his speech I researched his background and found out that he's a professional speaker hired by agencies to give presentations, and has no ties to RE.

Thank you for sharing your opinion and background experience.

Forming little groups in the background to down vote certain individuals comments based on skin color, or religion, or perceived political leanings seems like something we could all do without on this forum.

Being novices in the game we do not have the legal or business background to know where to begin on accepting funds.
