To echo what others have said, Chicago's money makers are in 2-4 flats.

If you're interested in Loral, I would suggest buying her book "The Millionaire Maker".

Text, e-mail, doing what needs to be done on time, focusing on the big deal makers and breakers, not the little stuff.When I meet to sign a contract she tells me of houses that are coming up. 

Rent by the room can be a huge money maker, provided its the right location close to campus in Gainesville.

They want to be market makers instead of partners. 

If you have to make more money/month... move on, though I don't know what else is available in your area.Here's the biggest decision maker/breaker:  What is your vacancy rate and maintenance cost.  

If you mean individuals that make RE loans, I'd be more inclined to call them unregulated, under the radar, hard money lenders.

I have seen some owners try to recoupe delinquent lot rent from the new owner. 2 the lot owner can refer you to other lot owners who may be interested in investors who want to buy their vacant units. 3 investor friendly park owners can give you a report on violations the unit has been flag for in the past (I.e tree fell on it and water ran in the unit for a month before it was fixed). 4 Park owners have relationships with mobile home dealers which can help if you need to sell a lot of units on exit or put your hands on foreclosed units. 5 If you have a good relationship with the park owner you can work together to get rid of a problem tenant and your unit and money maker isn't jeapordized.

People do get into wholesaling or become agents but those aren't quick money makers and those take time and money to do. 

So without you being prepared to make real offers, unfortunately your broker can't do much more for you.I would encourage you to continue with preparing your finances so that you can be ready to 1. jump in if this competing buyer backs out and the property comes back on-market, or 2. make offers on other deals.If you are finding off-market deals, I suppose you could take more time to prepare/get creative with financing.
