i have a slight issue and have heard horror stories about leading i just started my llc for my investing business and found a great opportunity to buy a commercial mixed use building located in my home town in new york. now i guess my question really is what do you think the best method to finance this deal is without any assets in the lcc at the moment 

He saw a shadow of the real me, buried under all my coping methods and almost unknown to the person I was then. 

How or what is best method for creating capital to make my first purchase. 

Brief overview (It appears they have to give 48 hours notice or 7 days notice of meeting)  The method for the Association may deliver this notice is Not consistent. 

I would like to mentor with someone in the area who knows the business but I am not quite sure on who to contact or what avenues to explore to find someone willing to be a mentor.

Our opinion:  the weight/consideration that should be given to assessment is timing (i.e. when is the next assessment going to happen); any changes in assessment methods that a State/county is considering & exemptions that will not be applicable to an investor.  

The meantime I am learning and exploring other real estate investment vehicles (wholesaling, rehabbing, etc).

To be brief, the two main methods that many investors in your price range make money are:1) Fix & Flip. 

And, with my financial picture what it is at the moment, the method for fixing my credit rating had to be low cost or free.Well, I found a way that is free.

In regards to your concerns, you should put together an MOU regarding the terms of your agreement with performance clauses protecting both parties, and eventually lead to a JV agreement.There are several other methods to protect yourself as well as the owner/seller, however, too lengthy to write about.Don't be too greedy, otherwise it will limit your relationships and longevity.
