Trying to expand my Multi property investments portfolio & expand my network with likeminded people to go on the attack & get stuff done.

With that I presume you have significant student debt, but also a big sword (high income) to attack it with.With a high income, plan on living well below your means for a few years and kill off the student debt.

Just so there's no personal attacks or "questions".

Marriage should strengthen you as a team to attack real estate together, not something that is just about each other with business aside.   

I don’t currently have the money to just pay it off but considering if I should attack the loan over the next few years or save liquid funds for future deals. 

These same issues can be attacked in a foreclosure 5 years later, can you prove you were in compliance at the time the note was originated, if you can't you may very well lose.Me, I'd take any financing agreement to a RMLO with "proof of the exemption" **, pay him a few bucks to set his seal on that note with a statement exemption and attach it to the note, tape it with heavy clear tape, front of the statement to the last page of the note as an extension of the note.

I would love any feedback on this and I'm open to other suggestions for a plan of attack if anyone has anything to offer.

@Sven JessicaI don't know if it is of any help but there's a BP blog entry I wrote talking about how I got my arms around making cold-calls.http://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/6020/blog_posts/41602-cold-call-paralysis-how-i-am-attacking-itIt is good you have a partner nearby - they may come in handy. 

Hi Anna,More than happy to assist in educating you on the proper way how to attack your first-ever flip.

So the only expense I see left to attack, which happens to be everyone’s favorite topic, is insurance.I am not schooled [yet] on the ins-and-outs of property insurance, and I realize the following questions are pretty much opened-ended and every situation is different, but any practical advice or rules-of-thumb will be greatly appreciated!
