Would the guy you mentioned previously be good for a larger-scale job?

I started a women's book club near Tacoma about a year ago, and now there are 180 of us, and it is one huge happy hour, girlfriends, social events, lunch...whatever...all sorts of fun stuff.

You just have to dig for them; or better yet, have someone else dig for them for you.Here's some information that may help you if you plan on looking at REOs (foreclosed properties).First of all, I have never seen, in any of the states I am licensed to work in, any REOs where the bank gave anyone a disclosure of any sort beyond the federally required Lead Based Paint Disclosure for properties built prior to 1978.

There always seems to be a delay of one sort or another.

A few deals like this and you could build your capital to the point where you can start lending larger sums.In my experience, it's hard to make a loan work for both parties at less than $30k...and even then, it's very tight.Good luck building that capital!

My dad is a business man of sorts and he invested in and out of real estate.

I read a post just recently from someone that mentioned Pete Fortunato, an old time Florida investor has some sort of weekly meetings in the Tampa area.

Sounds like you're on the paid staff.Sounds good, there is a great lack of understanding of reality, business and economic cycles, property management, effects on properties long term.A paper tiger of sorts, let me know how over leveraging works for you 20 years from now. :)

For all you BP'ers that have access to MLS, how do you sift and sort to find your SFH deals.

I had 20 units before and it took up too much of my time.If I buy again it will likely be a 100 units or larger so I can be hands off with infrastructure in place.
