There are companies and individuals who perform this service.

My advice is to NEVER buy a property without separate metering unless you plan to separate the utilities (install individual metering).Mike

I have taken two of the classes thus far, and am about to take my next two, and haven't taken advantage of the mentor.Eventhough the information was well presented and some questions were answered, I am finding that just getting out there and reading books from libraries, looking up topics on UTube (which somehow linked me to BP), and networking with individuals here on BP, is giving me the same if not more information as the classes.The classes are beneficial; but I think that you could probably find the same types of classes, for much less $$$.A plus for the Rich Dad Academy is that you can retake the class once, and you can enroll in OnDemand (which is just watching the class an hour at a time on the internet).The negative: Once you go to one of the seminars that try to get you to sign up for Rich Dad Academy, you also get another call from their "coaching" system, which is another $$$ (embarrassed to say what it was, because I was roped into this also).My advice; find out the types of investing you want to do, research those topics, and post your questions and leads here on BP.

This is the beginning of the process of defining the actual individual markets that make up "The Sacramento Real Estate Market".

It's also likely true that the banks don't like the fact that individuals have the opportunity to profit (sometimes greatly) off of their non-performing assets, and they are trying to limit the ability of private citizens gaining on their loss.

If the property is in an area with a Market Classification 2, 3 or 4, or the appraisal indicates the property is in a declining market: The reason for the increase in values will only be allowed if significant improvements have been made or the borrower purchased the property under a distressed sale or non-arm's length/at-interest transaction and the above requirements have been met to substantiate the amount of value increase for the market.

We could vote for the individual instead of the party.

In fact that is what I am reaching for from any individuals that have dabbled in a few types of REI vehicles.

You could buy a 100 books but never learn as much as meeting and doing it with like minded individuals.
