Mother in law a VP of a Title Company,  neighbor is a Broker,  I have plumbing and contractor connection, and a wife that has incredible insight for home interior! 

I'm looking for a Real Estate Investor friendly Agent, Attorney, & Title Company in the East Texas and DFW areas would anyone be willing to share any recommendations? 

Real estate investment is a quantity game. 

any fee's you pay to foreclose are also added to your note.. and if someone took it sub too those folks generally wont have the ability to cure.. but maybe.. a lot of sub too in lower value assets is get in title for very little money then rip the rents.. knowing they will have one to two years in the foreclosure process so they get 800 a month for a few years.. do not pay anything on the property and walk away..

Quick question(s) for you.1) Are you guys wanting to put your name/llc on the properties title instead of theirs?

I was trying to consider some factors that may come into play - from what I understand you can put as little as ~3.5% down under an FHA loan - will it be more beneficial for me to put "more skin in the game" with the largest possible down payment I can make (say, closer to 10-15%)?

***** DEPENDS ON HOW THE HOUSE IS TITLED  - If It's in her name I'm 99% confident the answer is no  *****Can he sell the house and put money into a trust to protect it from the five year look back for Medicaid?

I have somewhat of a game plan and outline of what I'm wanting to do.

I never decided what to do with him and they all went to investors that he was familiar with, the title company that he used, the attorney that was his friend and I never even met a buyer.

Im new to the real estate game out here myself and went on meetup.com to attend events related to real estate investing.
