What’s the biggest red flag you watch for when vetting borrowers?

Investors are almost always the biggest challenge for any group, new or seasoned, but especially newer investors.  

They’re all accessible but would take a bit of effort to get to if there are tenants occupying both units.It seems like this may have not been the most ideal purchase then, with the biggest problem being that it’s a single family being rented as two units.

With this proses the investors I work with are also able to take advantage of some great incentives including solving for the biggest problem in the field, interest rates.The investors I work with also appreciate a turn key process on Single fam up to Quads and larger community development.  

@Thomas Loyola you haven't addressed the Class of property you intend to buy, so your assumptions could be too low or too high.Your biggest challenge is you are assuming you have to pay asking prices!

The biggest thing you should do is figure out which market you are trying to invest in and do some heavy research in that area.

One of the biggest misunderstandings I see among real estate investors is thinking that setting up an LLC in another state allows them to avoid California’s franchise tax.

The biggest issue is most of these "gurus" that get new wholesalers involved teach them to be deceptive when they approach realtors. 

After 45 years investing across many asset classes, many investment types, and everything from lowest risk to outright gambles, I think I finally know the answer.The biggest divide is between investments in which operational control over that investment is with the investor, and investments in which control rests with another party.
