Now I have purchased a house by the skin of my teeth, and for more details about that if someone out there wants to personally write me and maybe school me Id appreciate it very much!

Thanks for the response....do a 90% loan... it would give you room for negotiation in the price of the houseCan you give details about this?

I would however like to help others through mentoring (workout details later), ideas and software.

I was sitting at my desk one day (at a job I wasnt overly fond of) and began writing out my goals, I don’t remember all of the details but I do remember the major themes of the goals.Goal #1 Own a Harley before I was 30 years oldGoal #2 Have at least $30,000 in the bank before I was 30Goal #3 Make at least $100,000 a year by the time I was 30Goal #4 Own at least 5 investment properties before I was 30Goal #5 Have a fun car by the time I was 30I think I must have been about 29 years old and was working on cleaning out my basement when I discovered my old book of goals.

I have been working on teaching people for years about this industry and I have developed a site that has a lot of detailed information about marketing in the business and it gives a lot of info about "finding" note holders.

Check with your local building inspector and he can give you the details for your area.

We will give all the details on how to do it.

I recently heard a podcast describing how to do it, and I was thinking of looking into it in more detail this week.Basically when the seller of a property loans the buyer money to purchase the property, as is often done to help the buyer with the down payment or closing costs.

I have yet to figure out all of the details, but I want to keep the ball rolling on investments so that I have enough money by the end of 2008 to quit my job and be a stay at home mom.
