My brother in law got me interested in real estate this past January after he read (drum roll please!)............

Hi Everyone,My name is Sebastian Medina and pretty new to BP and real estate investing in general.I'm 26 years old and my brother and I just inherited a house from our father, so we're being thrust into the landlord life.

@Kyle Murphy, Hello, I just talked with my brother in San Jose and he said that the big earthquake is scheduled for this week.

you will go far brother.

If you're working with your brother, for example, learn how to say to him, right now I'm speaking as your partner, not your brother.  

I live in Los Angeles, and there was one guy from all of Orange and Los Angeles counties and his brother covered Ventura county.

I do have a few contractors that I could turn on to you besides my brother and father.  

Joe's brother-in-law buying Joe's house at a short sale would be a huge red flag for fraud.I think the biggest arrow in your quiver is #1, and your most probable path to success is to order a fresh appraisal with a fresh opinion of value, and once it comes back go to your (or the end-lender's) appraisal department (not the AMC, the lender's internal folks) and argue that the new appraisal is more credible than the previous one because of #1 ("if the appraiser didn't even go to the comps for a quick drive-by photo, who knows what else he didn't even actually do?")

I own a C corp with one other partner (my brother) - completely unrelated to real estate.  

Hi all,My brother @Aaron Smith is planning on 1031'ing proceeds from his 4 unit into a 4 unit renovation project in Washington DC.
