@Gene LivingstonThank you!

Quote from @Gene Hacker: Most of the books I have read are geared towards the absolutely new investor.What books did you read? 

I got one line of credit from Community bank in Jackson for 1 million dollars to use for my HML's and I got it because they could book at as CRA  because I was lending on Jackson properties it worked great for them they could book a big fat CRA loan and lend to a guy like Me..

@Gene P.

After all, I enjoy getting checks monthly - but it would nice to cash in a fat check once in while too.Question 2 - Networking is key to finding good deals - MLS can have some good deals periodically - but the best deals are going to come from a distressed situation that you find out about through word of mouth - and that means staying in front of your network and growing it so that you are exposed to new situations and opportunities.

That's huge ROI potential.Or you can own the business and see an even higher return.You have one of the best private resources in the country right in your backyard - Gene Guarino is the premier educator on residential assisted living through his RAL Academy.

Gene,Thanks for the post!

You can have an answering machine that sends cash buyers to message a) then credit buyers to message b) and then maybe credit with fat down pmt buyers to message c) You pay a little bit for patlive to set up a secretary that filters your calls and pretty soon you have a prospecting machine to stop all this nonsense that you might go through on a Saturday when you would rather be at the park with your boy. patlive is just an example you could use any type of virtual live secretarial service to accomplish what im talking about.

And he is fat.

Because if you have gotten an investor mortgage today means you have impeccable credit.. you want to keep it that way.. so you want to have room to exit and keep your credit intact without having to write a big fat check.
