If I'm going to work with a wholesaler, I want to be as reliable as possible.

Me and business partner are wanting to buy a property. We are a bit short on the needed capital. What is the best way to find a trustworthy investor? What do they charge? What's the best way to go about doing this.

If you get the right one, issues like property analysis will be much easier and reliable.  

I'm going to begin flipping in the new year and trying to get some reliable contractors on board.

Looking for any advice on how to find reliable contractors and funding for my projects. 

Provide details on reliable/reasonably priced contractors in the area.

I'm leery of CL, not reliable, scams of all kinds, you'll likely find chains and illegal brokers.You need to do your due diligence on brokers as well, if you're dealing directly with a note holder, that always best, brokers can pass of almost anything, you also didn't mention buying with recourse, at least limited recourse.

As the former owner of 2 rooming houses (18 tenants total) in one of Boston, MA toughest neighborhoods, I can say that as far as your business model has a reliable system you can do just fine.

How did you find someone reliable!?

Does anybody have any reliable sources regarding the current state of US real estate markets?
