If your going to buy and hold no license s of any kind.. 

Without data, you are open to all kinds of baloney and tricks. 

I understand how everything works WITH an agent helping me but if I'm being honest, I am kind of lost on the title company/escrow side of things now that it's all in my court.

Pushing forward, hoping that my responses are received by the people who have been kind enough to respond.

I hate to say it, but I had to put this kind of stuff on hold, due to my regular work. 

They need verifiable income of some kind .

I know that I have the discipline to apply this method "safely" and am kind of excited to employ it.  

I don't know why some people think wholesalers have some kind of ethical obligation to give advise to the seller.

I guess i am trying to decide for myself what kind of multi-res syndication i should invest at at this stage of the cycle, a C class property with great value add potential or an A class building that may be selling at a discount if that makes sense.

I would just say that if you go to one where you quickly get the vibe the organizer is trying to sell something (i.e. some kind of coaching or get rich quick whatever...) get out of there...meetups should be about networking, sharing opportunities etc...IMHO not about selling your fellow REIA members....if anyone disagrees I'd welcome the input
