I don't know if "real estate team" means that you are a Brokerage, but if not, we are an authorized HUD Brokerage and have both a residential and Commercial Broker on staff.We work with investors helping procure and in some cases rehab properties in Central and Southern Florida.Would love to assist...

Brandon and Josh just interviewed the author on the BP Podcast, and I listened to the audiobook a couple months ago.

Yes, it's quite possible to buy, but subject to, not assume.Do the sub-2 like any other equity deal, making certain you have full SSN's for deceased owners on old mortgages and get an authorization to release info signed by the PR.

Consider the management issue of your goal.Take a simple flip and GROSSLY assume you can close on the purchase(that's ignoring the find, offer, title stuff and even taking AS-IS)use some prior knowledge and templates for parts & laborget out in 45 days (again ignoring the selling details)that's 365/45 and you max out at 8.1 per year.With a goal of 50/year, you would need to clone yourself 6.1 times - - that's 6 people whom you could give signature authority to work under your name.Is this reasonable? 

@Justin SchafferLook up an author/investor called Fixer Jay Decima.  

When the author told his friends and family around your age that he would have a million dollars by the time he was 30 they laughed at him and told him his goal was not reachable.

I recently closed on a duplex ( 2 months ago ) via a short sale with two section 8 tenants both with different housing authority's.

Hello all, Just curious, if you could control what topics BP authors were writing more about on the blog, what would you want to see more of?

Can you recommend a couple authors and why they motivate you.Thanks!

@David Toupin & @Robb Smedema,Not to long ago, I had the idea that I would get money in residential so that I could then start my focus on commercial... someone asked me if you want to do commercial why are you screwing around trying to wholesale, that isn't what you really want so the motivation isn't going to be there and you are just wasting your time.Fast foward 6 months and now I work for one of the biggest banks in the world in their multifamily lending unit, learning from the people who do this day in day out, meeting the biggest players in the game.I have read a lot of posts authored by @Joel Owens and I have to admit the dude knows his sh*t (excuse my french bp)my advice, figure out specifically what you want to do in commercial do you want to own just multi family, do you want to own big box retail spaces, do you want to own shopping centers, do you want to own office centers or buildings???
