Thank God and thanks to Bigger Pockets. 

Hello,I’m new to bigger pockets, been following a while just never posted.

No realtors will take a rookie, he may take a mentor and agree to a cut of rookie commission for three transactions.   

I came across a deal in NJ (20 min from my current apartment)  $150,000 for a three family unit.

I have been reading loads of books (my all time favorite is Crushing It in Apartments and Commercial Real Estate), listening to podcasts (favorite is obviously Bigger Pockets, also Jake & Gino’s Wheelbarrow Profits), and reading a lot on the forums.I currently run my own personal training/online training business.

@Stefani GillenwaterWelcome to Bigger Pockets.

They said you need at least two of the three to be successful.

Half the crap sold at used apolIance stores has reached Its servIce lIfe or has been rebuilt three tImes .

Yep, the three agents you see listed with the property on Zillow’s site are agents who pay Zillow from $200-$800/mo., depending on the zip code, to be there.

Basically, the commercial lender wants to make sure you're not living off the property's income, it covers its own expenses with adequate margin for error, and you've got more than just your downpayment in the bank, in case you have to come out of pocket to cover some rough times.
