I'm starting with a focus in Palm Bay, Port St.

Yes, on the original contract it states "My Company, or designated entity" and yes, I told my realtor it was being assigned, and also forwarded the assignment contract to title, all prior to the deal falling apart.Would that change things at all?

What I'm not able to understand is if the companies teach you how to put together a solid and profitable deal, then why in the hell wouldn't they sponsor it ?

That bubble will burst in a very legally challenging way for people who follow that bad advice.Second, you have to be in a position to handle a Due on Salecall.Third you have to be in a position to make every payment on time even if the property is sitting there vacant.You have to know why you are buying the property and what you are going to do with it to be cash positive without question.There are other things but that is a start.

Has anyone in the Bigger Pockets community worked with this company?

The rent roll was so close to 1% of list price (which in my opinion is too high to start with) that I was instantly interested.
