I did some research online and found out about this meeting tomorrow in Standish but I haven’t heard of anything on here about it.

Just set one up through one of the many online LLC formation companies. 

Check window prices online. 

The Harris County Flood Zone map is easily available online, and it performed perfectly during Harvey.

Competition is brutal in Orlando and the auctions are online with an option to set a max price and have aut bids done on them.

How did she even earn any deposit back if her cat destroyed the place?

jordan, you beat me at my first year.i sold my first only rental a single wide trailer on own land feb 2017 which only paid loan earned $ 7k, profit on depreciating asset, all while living down street in foreclosure i bought earlier, zero down, since it had 2 "homes" on 15 acres  i had it surveyed with new deed and subdivided  the 3 acre back lot camp barns, then went credit union put debt consolidation note on camp since owned outright, no appraisal or inspection needed,  cleared ratios to refinance the bigger nicer one home, used that money cash out to help me buy a 3 unit, financed fix up money, then moved into 3 unit, rented primary home, rented 2 other units, then with 3 rental units income qualified just bought 3 b1 b house to rinse and repeat now in process to refinance my fixed up 3 unit. now i just incorporated after joining bp, thats all in last 15 months. now if i can get enough cash out refi on my 3 unit im praying for good appraisals to buy reo down street to rinse rehab and repeat and im still not sure im doing it right. im still using banks or credit unions. love find investor to simplify process and reduce paperwork.i tried listing my camp on air bnb but no one wants rent off grid river front home. lol.now got hire crew and management. 

And no, not taking it personally however when someone who doesn’t know anything about me, the full situation or the way I run my business starts typing with verbosity that, “you are doing this, you believe this, you are going to do this” (when I’m not...) etc, based on a question I posted online - I find it a bit odd.Thanks and have a good one - 

I would advise her on investing into a mutual fund that could earn 8-10% annually on her $100K, but otherwise, she can just use it as needed from checking account.

If you're looking to earn some extra capital on the side and want to only spend $3k-$5k furnishing a place as opposed to $30k-$50k rehabing one, I think this is a great option.
