For a bank to involve itself in choosing among competing offers, or influencing a borrower's decision among competing offers, is to invite a lawsuit against the bank if ANYTHING at all goes wrong.

All are invited and encouraged to come.

And Richard- I will send an invite connect so we can connect when I do have a LPG property under contract.

Hello BP,My name is Dylan Stone and I'm a former oil rig worker turned licensed realtor from Los Angeles county (yes we have oilfields here) I made the decision to get into real estate after being laid off from my oilfield job and after reading numerous books I figured "If I can work 12 hours a day doing back breaking and dangerous work for somebody else, why not work for myself in an air conditioned office" haha.

Hi @Mike Morehouse, I support Cody's advice 100% and look forward to inviting you to AVID Investor's Club!

@Avi Garg I got an invite for an out-of-state group on Meetup.  

For example a newbie may need to look at numerous properties and do walkthrough (before being really ready to pull the trigger) while learning to analyze the numbers in order to know whether or not there is a deal.What would you recommend to be appropriate and how can this be approached?"

May have something to add here as he has numerous vacation rentals in S.

I still sent out an invite in October and the group is now bigger and quite diverse.

Plus numerous outdoor improvements to improve curb appeal and landscaping, add a dog run, and improve lighting/security. * Over time, we'd spend $7500/unit to upgrade interiors as units turned over.
