There are lots of resources on this site and meetups that are local to you.

For me and my family, the MF Breeze team, his "Syndicated Deal Analyzer" (SDA) was a complete game changer and finally allows any of us to enter the major league.Looking forward to having a great journey together and doing awesome deals with all of you in 2018.

Thanks guysDerek Welcome to the site Derek.

I LOVE the site, but you know what I mean. lol Appreciate it.

There is quite literally EVERYTHING you need to know, short of actual tangible experience, on this site for someone to get started.

I figure the more skin they have into the game the less likely they are to trash the place or walk away.

I searched around until I found a reverse address site (411.ca in my case) that allows me to enter a street and get the numbers for all of the houses on that street.

I use this evaluation process strictly for SFHs that I want to flip. depending on your end game strategy your evaluation might be slightly different (ie: if you are a buy-build-holder then you might want to count in rental rates as well) Hope that helped

Find some equitable way to participate in a deal, so that you both have skin in the game.
