Thank Denise no its good to post these and report them to @Mindy Jensen directly she does not take kindly to those using her site to try to hood wink us.the biggest one though is just put a little blurb out your looking to borrow money.. that is when you will get spammed on facebook linkdin BP everywhere with FAKE LENDERS promise you the moon and deliver moon rocks..

Below are the open positions:AVENGERS:Tony Stark- I believe this position is for a Lender possible a hard money lender Hulk- Of course, this should be a contractor, ready to rehab future purchases if need beThor- Property Manager, someone that can handle both worlds of landlord and tenantsCaptain America- The great realtor whom is an investment prone, and can handle investors and knows the ways of investing.Honorable Mention Black Panther- Possible a partner/JV, who would like to provide their skills and assistant in building something special.I am a newbie(Spiderman), but i am ready to tackle the world.

Paint, flooring, new bathrooms and kitchens are kind of what I'm expecting to have to tackle - as well as landscaping.I have done some preliminary searches in my area for fixers in the $80k and under sales price range and right now through realtor.com I have found at least 170 properties listed.  

Like the guy above me in this thread, gaston county would be a great market to tackle too!!

It seems that 1% would be very reasonable for properties that are nearly turnkey, but the only ones I come up with are in need of major rehab/restoration which makes me question the true end-state - my estimating skills are far too neophyte to tackle a major rehab that close to the margin.  

Then, if you're interested in investing in more property, you either tackle pulling cash-out down the road via a HELOC, or you can consider cash-out now if you're very focused on making a move on something...and in the near future. 

The idea behind taking care of the maintenance and unit turnover is that we will have hands on training on tackling not only tenant issues but also property issues.

Or do we tackle this now?

Hi @Muhammad (Asad) Asaduddin - It seems like you are definitely mentally ready to start tackling real estate - looking for a mentor is a fantastic next step.I definitely struggled to find some great mentors myself, however, and I think that my experience could perhaps be of value to you!

i'm looking to start off wholesaling, i figured to build a network of RE attorneys for double closing, have contracts ready, contact investors to know their needs, which i've been doing the last couple days.Now i'm ready to look for deal and tackle the convo with potential sellers:1. should i completely avoid dealing with properties that already have an agent representing them?
