Thank you Michael, I have been using those methods like deal machine, list source etc... that you have mentioned with no luck as of yet.

Then once I've gotten some skin in the game and some money I can go to a bank to collect some bigger deals

Been looking to get in the game for a little while now and ran across a potential investment by pure luck.Was originally looking at single family residential to start out with rentals.Commercial deal came in to our laps:$310,000 purchase price4 retail store fronts(3 rented to a cafe, 1 to a boutique)2 apartments rented out upstairs1 vacant apartment upstairs(biggest of the 3 residentials).

Recently, Steak n Shake in PF stopped having someone seat you, you now go to the counter to order and then they installed a drink machine so you get it yourself.  

Hoping to have this project done by Dec 2021 for guests to enjoy some Cowboy games!

You are asking people to give you money and let you do everything without having any skin in the game.

hi BP fam - recently starting taking the steps to really get in the game of re investing i.e., creating a criteria, studying a market, making connections in market (realtors, lenders, etc) and I've determined I still need about six months of saving/paying off debt before we are really to purchasein the meantime I do not want to just sit on my hands. is there anything i can do to provide value to any experienced investors (bird dog, etc)?

Of course, at the end of the lease, it's fair game and I often find it best to change out the tenant as we might be in a value add, raising rent and just wanting to start over.

I told her I did not but I had rental agreements for all of them which had the current owners number and maybe it would be best if she contacted her directly instead of playing the telephone game. 

I am new to the game, but hoping I can be a great connection for many people just looking for the right partner/match.
