Thank you for the suggestion.

Any kind of tips and suggestions would be much appreciated. 

I would suggest you search for and attend a local real estate investor's meet up in your area and try to ask for clarification on your thinking. 

Top it off I'm sure I'll need a chunk of that $100k as reserves to handle maintenance and renovations.Would you guys n gals suggest I attend the auction just to see what happens or should I be prepared to bid? 

The 3rd deal is acquisition of a resort property being purchased from a Bahamian Municipality for pennies on the dollar, to then be converted into a state of the art Stem Cell Rejuvenation Center headed by a board of the leading Stem Cell Doctors in the world.As you can see these projects vary in type with the commonality being there location-any suggestions?

I am telling them to avoid that deal like the plague, although I have no idea where to suggest alternative financing.As for her own property, they are willing to refinance her at a slightly lower interest rate, and switch it over from 26 remaining years to 15 with lower monthly payments.  

Looking for suggestions on a good colored stain of some sort that will fill and get this passed.I really don't like doing things this way.

Will look into these suggestions. 

I'm open to suggestions.

A hotel became available in one of the markets I work. Has anybody acquired a hotel before as part of their portfolios? What are the things to be aware or things to consider before obtaining one?

thanks
