For now, there are still 4 days for everyone to get involved in this one!

I don't know if there are many mentors out there that help people trying to get involved, or if there are people looking for young motivated people to work with them.

If the property is on the MLS, including an REO, the agents involved are probably going to insist on a larger earnest money amount.Jon

In the case of landlords, it could be that their property was involved in a drug bust; that they've been dealing with the tenant from hell; that they're being sued; etc.

Born and raised in Northeastern PA, this condition has prevented me from staying with any single employer for very long, and has led me to believe that the only way to get to where I want to go, or at least the most practical way, is involved with real estate investing.

My wife and I moved here 5 years ago for a new adventure and to get involved in the growing RE market here.I have been learning about blogging and have been looking for a place in the blogosphere to learn and to share and this seems to be a great place.

I've been involved with being in such a partnership, but not the formation.If you have access to people with money, you might try approaching them for hard money loans.

My situation is that I am currently involved in a major legal battle and need to reserve my funds to be able to deal with that.

thanks for coming in and sharing with us I do hope to get more people involved with this thread.
