A principal is someone who has the capacity, powers and authority to sell (or buy from you). 

Depending on educational and actual brain capacity, things could not work out.

IT was very hard I had some very motivated folks.. however I needed to find that balance of motivation experience and capacity.. many had some but not all.. and I did not want a project that did not work and I did not want someone shooting all their bullets at this as well.

I think there is an unmet need for this kind of help to many older owners and empty nesters who may want to downsize or reinvest.In fact I am in that situation as a homeowner who wants to downsize and reinvest.You could shop for owners using wholesalers rejected offers.Those wholesalers who felt that the owner was close to selling but just needed a little more incentive.The wholesalers can also give you an idea of the owners capacity to enter into something like that.

Aside from yellow letters, you may also be able to wholesale MLS deals and connect with other investors, by representing them on transactions in a real estate agent capacity.

Building looks to be in OK shape, but there's no capacity to expand the septic system beyond the one bathroom, we're told.

I am of the same capacity, have engineer and architect on payroll, 3 superintendents, and a good pool of employees; that said, overhead is not easy, and smaller jobs <15k aren't that enticing to a GC with robust capability.

Many start out in a part time capacity.

This system will work until I get to full capacity with managing the properties, but I'd like to initially do this until I reach critical mass, and as a way of gaining additional equity in a transaction.  

We really enjoy it, and I don't know if I have the Capacity or Desire to do more than that.. but I think it's a great place to invest.
