I had it rented to kids from the college almost as soon as I finished the rehab and sold it 4 or 5 months later to an investor who wanted to hold it as a long term rental.

Contacting the previous contact would probably help.

I am currently taking a semester off from my four-year college, and will return next year.

I'm a college grad exploring Real Estate as a full time career.

There is supposed to be an expansion of the college there in the next couple years so that will probably change when that happens.Feel free to PM me with any questions.

So I doubt that if I paid the $100 to have an inspection done(nonrefundable), that I would even be able to pass.Apparently this policy change is due to a change in the FCRA (Federal Credit Reporting Act), which then impacted TransUnion's policy -- previously, they were the only one out of the three major agencies that would allow landlords to pull credit reports without doing an inspection of their facilities.

True...for the past ten years, open-market financing and the rise of the subprime lending industry made it unnecessary to use seller-financing as much as had been done over the previous sixty years--at least in the SFR marketplace.

i was wondering if ther is anyone out there willing to help a 21 year old college student in new york get his feet wet in real estate investing i would love the chance to learn the basics from a seasoned investor. dont get it twisted im not looking for a handout im looking for a mentor :superman: who is going to shorten my learning curve and bring out the best. i love real estate and would love the chance to get started on the right path to successful real estate investing -Calan-

There are far more real estate millionaires that started with nothing, than corporate millionaires that started with nothing.I like that you dont need a college education, you dont need to have the highest GPA, you can make it in real estate if you were raised by wolves under the shed in the back yard.

One technique for a new person in the business is to explain that they are new in the business, working thru college, paying for xyz to help out xyz, and are glad that they are starting out work with nice honest people like........yaddi, yaddi, ya.....After the story next is qualify....who, what, why, how come, how many, when, why not, ect.... this is where you gather all the info on the transaction you catch my drift.Next land Note: during the landing stage is where you begin to propose the offer, this is the same place where you remind them about all the bad stuff wrong with the house.Next is the Close....later got to go to work
