Good luck with your ventures.

Even though I am a "newbie" and have limited knowledge about creative real estate, he was kind enough and patient enough to  spend a significant amount of time with me.He discussed how to approach an owner and how to structure different deals, how to Joint Venture with a seller,  which neighborhoods to buy houses in and why,  how to find owners ready to sell on good terms, and much, much more including a quick review of IRS taxation, trusts and Dodd-Frank.Thank you BiggerPockets and thank you Brian Gibbons.

Good luck on your venture

@Everett MarshallI can do some kind of a joint venture with you

I would like to get into maybe section 8 type properties for more secured rental income, and hope to maximize my money from the vacant land ($125 k) into this venture.   

I would guess since the rapid growth and numerous offerings there will be some hiccups in communications but they will be quickly overcome thru better technology focusing on customer service.I would like to continue to enjoy 10% plus returns on higher dollar amounts but I have totally understand the down side risks and principal recapture protections It is a hybrid type of investment bordering on HML and joint venture .Can anyone explain the legal process in recouping a bad loan ?

Hi all,I am planning to enter into a partnership with one of my friends. We are considering 50/50 on money but we are trying to find out a way so that one person (who has better chances of getting good loan terms) to ...

It's funny @Bill GulleyI coach people but I have some requirements as to whether or not I would coach themOne of the requirements is to get licensed in certain states, New York, Maryland, New Jersey, DC, Florida, California, Virginia, etc. there's a few othersOne of the other requirements is that I interview the attorney on the phone for the real estate investing newbieIf they don't understand what subject to a wrap or installments or private lending or joint venture partnering is, and the attorney doesn't need to be educated, because in law school they don't learn that (lol), it's my favorite four letter word NEXT!

I took a couple of years off to get into other ventures but I found myself back in the sales market.

Hello all,I'm out to gain more knowledge and try my hand at gaining more properties.I love and take absolute pride in the little holdings we have and as hard as it is for me, I look to seek help on matters I'm not as strong with as I'd like to think........Looking in the way of small multi-family and small apartments (very small) and feel very priced out in my market so I'm venturing elsewhere ( intimidating & scary)Having BP as a resource, is a great platform to start with and I feel very lucky to be here.Thanks for reading my very mediocre introduction......... : )Cheers, Peter
