That's why its important to have expert advice.

That's not saying that two guys with money can't partner up and invest, but when one guy has no money and the other is funding the deals, that gets away from "investing" and getting in the business of dealing in notes.You can go further too, you can have investors, but there are legal hoops to jump through and compliance is required, it's not a newbie arena.Just saw the marketplace ad, saw the site, didn't listen, but using the words crowd funding and note investing together is nothing short of scary and I can assure you, you aren't listening to note and finance experts! 

Computer models also benefit from lots of tuning, machine learning, and if the company is good some really expert tweaks to take into account things newer folks would miss.Doing it manually is great because a person can sometimes easily see something that the computer model misses, and can take into account other things - conversations with owners, etc - that the computer model simply can't.Generally I find the computer models do better on cookie cutter deals, and people do better on unusual deals.

Every area is a different and I am no expert in your market.

I'm no expert, but they become expert in the rent control laws and legal exceptions and loopholes.

I'm no expert so I'll defer to someone else if incorrect but you wouldn't actually "own" the property for a year during their redemption period so you couldn't get a loan on it since you won't own the property yet.

Now I am not an expert in Long Island, but I have looked into it.

I am looking for a trusted Industrial roofing expert in Toronto.

So I'm launching my RE Investing business and I really need to get some direction from a CPA/ Business entity expert.

Can anyone give me some feedback on the area around S Jefferson and Lynch?  $/sq ft? Was thinking of investing in a rehab there. Thanks!
