It took me 13 months to open a bank account in Belize.  

By adding our own real estate agency, we’ve opened up new income streams while making our business more versatile.

Or does one need a special license / need to open a company?   

BRRRR is what I am looking to do but i am also open to fix/flip.

No reason for me to go the through the hassle of the sale process unless there is some type of gain which the investor is open to and this is where I need the advice.

I am actually open to hear about other areas in the states, but the general direction is Jacksonville at the moment.I totally agree about the partnership part.That is why I am working with one :) Are you thinking of buying in Jacksonville as well?

Still open to them of course.  

Most sellers that are open to selling you a deal off-market are just like I was with my rentals: the way to motivate them to sell is to give them a price HIGHER than they think they can get on the market.  

I recently opened a HELOC and I recall it's at prime for the first year (7.5% currently), and I only paid minimal closing costs.PML or HML I would expect rates >10%, plus points, possible prepayment penalties etc.

Offering discounts and opening up your calendar are great steps.
