I search the internet daily for help and information.

Not sure of the science, (Internet science!)

Everytime, I do keyword searches of the Internet using keywords, such as "Must Sell" "Rehab" "Moving" etc, I end up seeing many in Connecticut and Rhode Island and hardly any in Massachusetts.

While I'll be able to land a good job because I'm a computer programmer, I've always had the entrepreneur bug.  

I went with option two. but im a individual that went out and seeked training via books, internet, etc.

Internet search or phone book should be adequate.

Researching the internet is a mixed bag about laminate wood flooring for kitchens and baths.

I was thinking about including Internet Access and TV also so I may have to lock those down a little so they don't go over it's limits.  

@Chris Callaghan The best thing I look for is a track record and testimonials from people they have helped already...Not that testimonials can guarantee they can help you, but it gives you some confidence...Thank God for the internet, it is hard to pop up in business without telling people your story about how you got started doing what you do, and if you have no track record then you have some explaining to do, if you can really can do what you can do...the beauty of Financing and Funding is if you are really good at getting companies funded you don't have to advertise...You will have people lining up to send you clients to get funding for...In my experience their is no new funding out here, and most follow very similar guidelines in terms of what lenders are looking for...Bottom line I look for is track record...

From what we can tell in a general internet search, both of the previous owners are deceased.
