Hey fellow BP members,I have this question that have been nagging me.I understand that the best practice is register the entity in the State that you are buying the property in rather than go through some method advised online where you form the entity in popular States like Nevada, Wyoming or Delaware etc..

I am preparing to submit my first NC PACES Act (Crowdfunding) offering and am curious if anyone has used this method for raising money.

This should cut down on some of the irate callers.These methods may not be a "be all end all" approach to irate callers, but it just may cut down on some of the abuse taken up front.Just some ideas.Jeff V

I was having a conversation with a couple of fix and flip types last evening here in Phoenix, Arizona and they told me what I thought was a brilliant idea: They have created a partnership with a local solar power installer who they are doing multiple deals with.

I'm loving the BRRRR method, and I think this is definitely the way to go to minimize risk, start with low to no money down, and grow rapidly.That said, I'm finding it difficult to find out around how much you should put down with private money up-front? 

I am currently in property management for my occupation but I hope to someday go prom property manager to property owner through the BRRRR method, but that takes both money and skill to get great deals. as I am low on both, I was thinking of one of the best ways to increase my skills and earn a little money to save up for my own ventures would be wholesaling.what are your thoughts?

You can ask a family member for a loan, but some lenders will require that amount to be sourced once they see a large deposit in your bank statements.By the way, if you're ever planning to keep a property (i.e. the BRRRR method), always get pre-qualified with a conventional lender first to make sure that you actually can do the refi, otherwise you'll be stuck in a hard money loan. 

Main difference being the length of time for each step, costs, method of valuation, and inconsistency across lenders.Many lenders won't let you pull all equity out though, YMMV.

Now though, he said he would highly recommend the more thorough heat treatment method at a cost of  $1250. 

So I find that when I evaluate properties according to the BiggerPockets method, including CapEx monthly, including 5% of gross rents for repairs and maintanence, including 10% for property managers, etc, NO property passes any test.  1% rule, 50% rule, or even being positive cash flow.
