In Maryland -  following a judicial sale, you have 90 days for the court to ratify the sale (in which case you can assemble financing) and the title company conducts a complete title search and presents insurable title.  

They will have another layer of value to add versus just a broker transacting only.For instance I am an investor myself, a principal broker, and when I started out I assembled tracts of land for a developer for big commercial projects.

It is important that you reserve significant personal funds for the unexpected situations that will always arise when you assemble a rental portfolio. 

But at our meetup and on our webpage through our forums, we want to encourage people to think beyond their borders (if it makes sense for them) and invest where the best opportunities lie.With a strong dollar, I'm sure there are a lot of interesting places to invest if you can assemble the right teams.Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment.

I will begin the task of assembling a team as you so eloquently conveyed.

It's seamless, easy and an assembly line approach. 

By comparison, there were 891 flips — defined as any property sold for the second time within a 12-month period – 40% of these properties became turn-key rentals for landlords.All-cash buyers purchased 5,220 single-family homes and condos representing 41 percent of all sales in the Philadelphia metro area during the first quarterA challenging part for the amount of time and work it takes to assemble a decent-sized portfolio of rentals in Philadelphia that didn’t suffer the massive downturn that California, Nevada, Arizona and Florida had experienced.As of May 2015, average apartment rent within 10 miles of Philadelphia, PA is $1443.

I can dumb it down to understand small pieces or assemble into aggregated portfolios.

Alright, first things first I have yet to do a deal and am currently finishing up assembling my team.

Hi,My name is Pablo Sanchez, I'm from Chile, Santiago and I'm interested in flipping small single family homes in Santiago.I have zero experience in real estate, however I have a site with estimates of the purchase value in my city (www.ufm2.cl).I'm in a partnership with an ex coworker, and so far we have assembled the team (architect and lawyer) and we have chosen the zone we want to target.I already read the book on flipping houses by J Scott and listen to the bigger pocket podcasts everyweek.My goal is to make at least one flip by october.I think this community is great, but I'd be surprised if I find someone from my Country here =-)Thanks in advance for the help.
