I think the whole process of reaching out to players in real estate, experiencing the process, and getting the first piece of property will make it so much easier going further. 

If a borrower can't cut the deal with a bank or broker, I would not get involved.Same holds true for these investors trying to buy as investments, if they came to you, they are weak players, not at all like residential where there is a much stronger market.

In MA it will take about 4 years to get your money back:- Federal Tax credit 30% (year 1)- SREC - in MA cash flow is equal to 100% of the cost of the system spread out over first 6 years- Accelerated depreciation (deduct 50% first year, and 9% for 4 years their after)- Electricity price - depends on your local rates- Also very low maintenance.When deciding between the companies I would try to get referrals, also I went with a national player Sungevity - they offered better pricing and guarantees of production ( big guys are more likely to stick around)Hope it helps

In one of my properties, this particular lender may be a player, simply because he can close in 7 days but my client likely loses to a qualified cash buyer, who is buying on cash flow all day long

When I first got into the real estate game I struggles to build a rolodex (e-rolodex) of industry players.

Saw a different post where you responded to a football player and curious to know how you reached 12k passive income a month from $250k cash investment I myself just put $300k into an apartment building in Las Vegas my cost with fees $1,175,000 I’m holding a note for $862k at 4.75 pay insurance 600 a month management $400 a month taxes $400 a month this is a 20 unit at 550 a door 18 units currently leased I figure this only nets me $5k this doesn’t even consider misc maintenance

I still have faith but not much left that one day I will find the right contractors, team players to get to the finish line where we both win in this game!

The right Broker will also be your best friend so I'd go interview a bunch, take notes, find out who the players are in those markets and pick your right hand man.

So, the big players in this game have systems in place to get these deals done quickly. 

The higher end luxury homes aren't moving as quickly because there are so many other, new homes on the market that are big and luxurious, but not AS expensive, and builders are giving all kinds of incentives to buy, including discounts.Still there are players, both investors and end-buyers who purchase no matter what and are doing so right now.
