Hello, my husband just became a licensed realtor and we are looking at creative financing options to house hack/ make our current primary home into an investment property and purchase a new primary home for ourselves. 

Unknown Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I'm going to run some details by you and I'd like all of you who feel you are qualified to advise me so I can learn how to properly analyze these deals and be more cognizant of potential pitfalls/mistakes:So, I found this property off market in a Chicago real estate investment group.

Hi everyone,I live in California and I'm considering investing in real estate in Shreveport, Louisiana, especially since there's been recent news about the popular musician 50 Cent investing heavily in the city.

The real giants in our market do all these things well.

Additional relevant provisions in the contracts:"Title Evidence and Insurance: a title insurance commitment issued by a Florida licensed title insurer, with legible copies of instruments listed as exceptions attached thereto ("Title Commitment") and, after Closing, an owner's policy of title insurance (see STANDARD A for terms) shall be obtained by the Buyer. 

You are better off hiring a personal assistant or real estate assistant to help you.

Always try to double the project budget & time to prepare for the worst.Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

In Real Estate, if a seller is aware of an issue with his home, he needs to disclose that to future potential buyers.   

Everybody thinks they understand real estate, after all its just walls and a roof?
