When the business opportunity came through, my loan officer told me that I should hold off on starting a business until I closed on the property because I would be forced to wait 2 years if I didn't.

In fact, we just opened an office in riverdale just for that purpose.

Get to know the best workers in all the trades, ask if they are interested in side work and create a team like I am.

When asked to meet at office with funds, credit report majority do not show up.

Jim is the CPA I use for my business and I have a number of friends, clients and family who also use his office. 

@Bob Woelfel Last time I purchased a property (for personal) the loan officer ran my credit 3 times, each time it dropped my score.

It’s 16 units mixed with some studios and the rest are 2 bed 1 bath (I believe) I have an office building now that I’m looking to get out of and that’s how I’ll be putting the down payment on this property.

two can walk to the door.. no prob... she can probably get an agent in her office to go with.. that's the smart move.. 

I say that to say right now you may not have cash or savings , but here is plenty of ways to get into real estate for instance getting a license , giving up elbow grease to a contractor , volunteering at an attorneys office and calling your local municipal office to see what the laws are .

Hello,I'm planning to go under contract on my first commercial deal to purchase an office building with 3 tenants.
