are you looking to get in actively (flips and/or self-managing rentals) or more passively (turnkey properties or financial partner)?

I'm a financial planner by profession, I deal largely with company and state retirement plans and assisting clients with retirement funding analysis.

Hi folks,I am looking to meet like minded individuals from BP who live or invest in Philadelphia.PA.Does anybody know if a "Meetup" group already exist?

You can also invest as an individual. 

Fort Wayne investors, I am looking for a CPA and/or Financial Planner in our area who understands real estate investors and can help me strategize my taxes and plan for early retirement.  

Those aren't exactly something the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has made optional...My BS detector is starting to activate.

@Tom Pignatello  My experience has been to at least send over the application and your financials first to see if the lender is interested in working with you.

Taxable value right now is about $2,300,000-Loan:  Full recourse 75% LTV (including 75% of $450,000 rehab budget), 5 yr term, 25 year amortization, 4.5% interest with interest only year 1-Age: 1968-Individual HVAC and Hot water heaters-9 down units have been "down" since 2007!!

Condos, in general, are dependent on the financial stability of all of the owners.  

In any case I think the cousin thing is something you can look into if you have any unrelated individual legislation in your area.
