Should we have a joint bank account separate from our own strictly for the REI business to keep track of funds and cash flow recycling and etc?

pleased to meet youHow'd you get started doing the above deals?Thanks 

He has a good track record, but I have never lended money so I'd appreciate any guidance in how to set the terms and what steps are critical to ensure the relationship doesn't go south.

It is a 2 family home and I live in the home.I want to refinance to get rid of PMI, get rid of FHA, and tap equity to buy a second multi-family home in the same neighborhood with a new FHA mortgage.A few questions:1.  

Just make sure you have someone who knows real estate and has experience with multi-member LLCs.

Hi,  This is actually a double question.  I often find some really nice MFH's but they are often older homes, some dating back to the early 1900's.  One in particular is really beautiful, inside and out. It is already...

(or IS one of those people)....that would be interested in possibly forming some type of partnership to look for deals and find lenders, so we can show them some form of track record.I have a pretty strong network and strong networking abilities in-person.

Looking for people's experience with appraisers on small multi family properties (2-4 units).

If you didn't have a successful track record investing out of state I would say maybe sell maybe not. 

If the right opportunity came along, where I could manage an multi family building as an Airbnb and crash pad here in the valley I would do that.
