Hi BP community,We're about to move back to the mainland and are looking for investors or wholesalers in the Lower Alabama area - specifically enterprise, Dothan, ozark, daleville...

And there are numerous pitfalls including valuation differences and paper trail documentation that it's usually not a DIY enterprise.

It also enabled him to grow his business back, without having to move his enterprise.

I am a student who just started up my own REI enterprise and have so many questions.

==============Depending on what kind of non profit...There are few lenders in that area.Churches get underwritten based on giving units...not profits...and the number of families in a church...and the concentration of the donations by the largest 10% of donors//givers....Risk Magazine just rewrote the guidelines for churches.....and how to underwrite those loans.Non profit schools and hospitals (Charter schools)  get treated differently again....and there are two lenders that will raise money for those based on a private small bond offering...but more expensive than a straight bank loan.Hospitals and  assisted living facilities are treated differently again ....So some more info on the type of NON PROFIT info would help us assist you better....Please find a bank that understands those...as your average banker only understands DSCR and commercial finance is most comfortable with a profit driven enterprise....Non profits get underwritten differentlyI  just completed the loan process for our church for $1.5 million for the land to be followed by a $7 mill construction that I shopped to 3 credit unions and 2 commercial banks...

@Mindy Jensen  ya that's a tough one expecting the brokerage community to embrace you when you want to pay 2k BAC on a 700k deal... of the public just see's their stuff on line tells their agent I want to see that house.. and agent is stuck.agents won't show their listings if they have a choice I am sure of that.But it is Ameruca so free enterprise at work.

Why turn to happy hour and use other vices as band-aids but rather share them with others so advice can be given and a weight can be lifted from your chest.My stories range from trying to appease all 8 heirs to a probate acquisition... to showing up in the early morning to a Buckhead rehab with the back door kicked in and all tools stolen... to having no contractors show up for a week due to a myriad of excuses... to finding a lien on the property due to a previous owner... to the joys of dealing with historic district supposed guidelines... to listing a property in 2016 and finding out 80% of the "cash offers" are from wholesalers and digging to figure out who is a real cash buyer.At the same time, the highs of listing and receiving a dozen cash offers within the first 48 hours is a rush that is hard to compare.  

Call JBC enterprises, ask for Holli. 

But as a smart investor, you will want to know if the seller has previously listed the property at either a high or lower price to aid in your negotiations.

Yes, personal finance should be taught, however, grade school is getting a little ahead of things, the math skills aren't there yet to go into evaluating opportunity costs, differences in interest charges or the maturity to concepts of priorities of a car payment or insurance or rents or life insurance, I doubt the average 6th grader would get it.Simplistic ideas of products, costs, profits and business should be taught, from the time they are old enough to have a kool aid stand.I'm speaking from a position of teaching the subject, elementary school is pretty objective, facts are taught, business and finance quickly get into subjective thinking which really isn't developed as to making choices until the 7th and 8th grade as well as the math skills needed to apply concepts.
