Knob and tube has more negatives than most people think, As a GC doing lots of remodels in a old beach town, we replaced a ton of these.

Deception and perception play a major negative role.

Does anyone have a good effective 3rd party mailing company to send mailers direct to seller?

It’s as if pointing out any negatives about the guru, or his system, is a personal attack on themselves.  

The ability to get funding in just a few days can make a world of difference, allowing investors to act quickly and lock in the best opportunities.I’m curious, in your experience, what strategies have you found most effective for building strong relationships with reliable direct lenders?

Quote from @Chris Seveney: For those experienced in private lending: This question was posed to me in my membership group from an investor:What strategies have been most effective for scaling your loan volume to $5M+ per month?

I'm going to reiterate what's already been mentioned above, but I'm going to actually give you examples of why it's relevant to you to find a U.S. tax professional.1 - You're going to need to file U.S. taxes once you have property down here, there's federal filings, state filings, and sometimes local filings too2 - Tons of tax treaties between the U.S. and Canada that are easy to miss and can cost you a lot of money (important one with rentals - effectively connected income - if the professional you talk to doesn't know what this is, run away)3 - The amount of days you spend in the U.S. needs to be tracked and if you go over a threshold, all of your worldwide income could be taxable by the U.S.4 - Selling real property means up to 15% of your sales proceeds might not be available to you for years (FIRPTA)5 - Lots of nuance at the state and local levels, which both want to take as much money from you as possibleMain takeaway here is that you should find a U.S. based tax person.

They don't understand how to price effectively, study the market, set boundaries with tenants, establish policies and procedures, communicate, and dozens of other things.

However, this is not really effective in the real world.

They are the worst company to deal with ever.I then asked a few other real estate attorneys and their response was the same.The negative reviews shared are exactly what happened to me.In addition i have personally had over 100 loans in my lifetime.
