Different laws and local nuances occur in different cities and municipalities so join your local REIA club, obtain a mentor, or partner up on a deal to complete your first, second, or even maybe third one.

I would then join a local REIA club and touch base with someone locally.

You can join my program for half that, you get daily instruction via my secret internet forum reply methods that have been proven to be successful for thousand of investors.

Have you joined as a member yet?

Hi JustinThis is my first post on Bigger Pockets - your question fired me up to join!

The point here is that a straight forward approach to joining a US based LLC and making investments may very well be the worst tax idea that you could come up with, considering the available family member willing to do business with you.

Be sure to join up for our local BiggerPockets meetup > http://bit.ly/003BPMeetupWe have a meetup this Saturday.

@Ryan McElroy Join your local REIA and hook up with the rehabbers.

Glad to see you've joined and we hope to see you stick with it.I recommend the podcasts to learn a lot of the basics and at the same time get an idea of other books that are recommended.

I am certainly going to be looking at joining some REIAs, the advice alone seems to be worth it let alone potential hard money lender connections as well as wholesale connections both buying and selling.
