Why would anyone consider doing business with you if you don’t introduce yourself and state your background?

Although humbly speaking we are well suited for this since I grew up in the land business right over there in Clear Lake ( lake county) I also did the last phase of Lake Wildwood and the project just to the East of Beale Air force base on the Hamaton Smartville road.. etc etc.. most lenders simply dont have my back ground so we help the land flipper in due diligence as well as with funding.

I think it is a great idea, steady tenants and a great REI if you are willing and able to take care of it (of course you can have a property management company, depending on what you want to do).

BiggerPockets has become a bigger business and therefore needs more revenue to sustain the higher expenses and profit, and it gets revenue from ad space, not from meetups.

I had a client exit his real estate business and leave suspended losses behind.  

This property is close to the down town, near a bus line, and fit the business model.

Build your toolbox to success in this business. 

Sometimes they will pay you to install for added business.

I doubt 25% down is realistic, it depends on the accurate property financials, which you do not have yet, but if you need help sizing up the loan once you have those financials, I'd be happy to help with that.Good luck, maybe talk to you in six months, bookmark this thread.

Starting this business (and you have to realize it is a business) is not easy and there are so many moving parts.
