A high income earner with a full time job and 30 out of state rentals isn't going to spend however many hours preparing his/her return and planning when I could do the return in a fraction of the time.

Don't get me wrong, there are some really good ones but they represent only a very small fraction of what is available.  

Well to answer your questions I am not looking for you to lending me money  LOLI believe you simply fractionalize the beneficial interest in the deed of trust.. there is a disclosure form right on the BRE website for this.. generally 10 investors or less on a DT is the safe harbor for any securities issues.when I had my HML shop in Oakland every single loan we had on the books was multi bene and that was 50 million worth of them  LOL... 

If I can give back a fraction of what I've gotten from this site I'd be honored.

In my experience working with investors they usually mean they want discount agents to work for a fraction of the price that the resale market pays...So what do YOU look for or offer as an Investor-Friendly agent?

Places like TJ Maxx and Marshall's have brand name linens at a fraction of the cost.

He truly is inspiring and I am studying hard to achieve a fraction of his success.  

Just like bank financing.I don't have any idea why the Seller you are referring to would do Seller Financing, but since you say he is "an older gentleman" he might have retirement income, and social security that would be taxable if his other income goes over a certain amount, and he might just like the idea of not paying all of the tax on his Capital Gains in one year.In Seller Financing, the Seller reports the amount of the Down Payment plus a fractional amount of the principal portion of each note payment received in the year of sale as Capital Gains.  

It all sounded great, except the fact that many of the examples used on the show seemed to be in areas where the property values were a fraction of the price they are out here.

Only other altenative is you would need to put it with an investor group like Norris group and go in on a fractionalized loan, which I don't like ...
