If the deals were so good then why would they need to sell why not raise money in a fund… @Chris I think there was no real intention to conduct business in an ethical manner, Jason Walsh rather laid the foundation to use RE to produce a pretty large Ponzi scheme and I think we all know how those end. 

Make sure they have real estate experience as location is not an issue, most of us work remotely assisting RE investors with their tax planning.

I will discuss them separately in the future. 

Then start going after some off market properties, pay cash, renovate it, re-fi out keeping just enough to make it a 1.1-1.2 or at worst 1.0 DSCR, do it again.

I have a good relationship with a roofer who will write me letters saying the roof is good if it is and I replace roofs that are not in good shape. 

I work with RE investors who purchase in Duval and Alachua counties Florida.

The area is coming up and re-development is happening there.

I would love to buy some land or a property in the Oaxaga region but wanted to learn more about financing land or RE. 

This is one reason that people have been saying cap rates would be going up because why would you buy RE at a 5 cap (5%) when you can take that money, in todays interest rate environment, and invest it in safe investments that take zero of your time and don't have unseen expenses, and get 5% or better?

As I've told you before, I have never referred to myself as a "guru" or anything of the nature, but I suppose since you write (unreadably) more than you read, I understand your confusion.By the way, what is it about a "nobody" like me that threatens you so much?
