I live in small town OK,and have talked with a local investor/realtor that is known in the area recently.Offered to take him to lunch if he will talk with me about REI,he liked the idea and gave me his card so I begin my networking and education.My wife and I plan to invest in multi-family homes,apt's and mobile home parks.

I have only heard of that happening recently because the buyer bought a new car or was late on some credit card payments just prior to closing.I have had quite a few people come into my open houses hoping to qualify but they have car payments, credit card debit and they are self-employed so can't support the payments with their declared income.

Conduct yourself wisely, especially around others who are successful and play your cards close to your chest, don't tip your hand.

I am planning on making a door hanger and using them in one school district, in the areas where I am looking to buy.The contents:Basics: Clear bag, magnetic (or regular) biz card, handwritten note or mini card, flyer printed on matte cardstock.Other possibilities: A card (with small magnet attached) that shows community calendar and my info, small coupon book from local businesses that may want to participate (this could help pay for this campaign also).I plan to follow this up in a month or two with a sticky note on each door that says, "Hi- We buy houses in as-is condition in (this area).

After college no one has ever asked me for a copy of my degree or my report card.  

We have never had two doing this at the same time so haven't had to figure out who's is who's; bank may have options with issuing a deposit card for each address, or separate accounts.

@Jerry Rodgers ...Definitely a thank you card with $3K-$5K...A great way to show him that bringing great deals can be a mutual benefit!!!

Keep your head up, keep learning, and decide which path you want to take but if you are waiting for the market to correct and you aren't an expert at every single indicator you might as well learn how to count cards and go to Vegas. 

Below are some requirements: - Charge Credit cards (include AMEX [very popular among clientele]) - Provide itemized receipts- Provide refunds- Retain card info for future/reoccurring purchases (next month billing)- Charges will range from $1200 - $2800 - Both in person / not in person charges Do you have any experience with this type of billing?
