I have a copy of the manual and have spent time with Ray on multiple occasions.

They run multiple meetings each month.

Rehab took 2 weeks (cosmetic), 2 weeks on market and we had multiple offers, accepted one for 73K and walked away with a quick $11,000 after selling fees.

It's a newer site (so also not that many listing yet) but you can search listings by ID number so you can publish it on your yard sign, I found a number of the other ones don't and it also has a portfolio manager of sorts that's geared for landlords and property managers with multiple properties and vacancy listingsPM for the address if you're interested.

There were a number of large houses that had been broken up into multiple units, each with a kitchen and bath.

Matter of fact, many of the people that I interviewed with weren't even sure of what they owed.

We feel like our first order of operation will be to find a good banker (after some interviews) and from there we will know our best mortgage option and we can start looking into a certain price range in a certain location as well as finding a good realtor.

(start interviewing brokers, RE attorneys, contractors, property managers, etc).

If you are doing multiple properties you can carry materials from one site to another (shingles for example).

Jeff,To expand on what John said ... all six are the right answer.Just depends on what the question (read the deal) is.But be prepared to switch from one to another i.e. multiple exit plans.Question #1 ... private investors (aka silent partners or HMLs) ... no, not that hard.
