Another person on BP that you might want to connect with is @Reed Goossens....his niche is assisting foreign investors investing in the U.S. and he could possibly be a resource for you on the issues you deal with as a foreign investor.  

We have been using creative financing options to this point in order to maximize opportunities and due to limited financial resources of our own.We have what seems to be a great opportunity to buy a triplex in Salem, Ohio via seller financing; (my husband and I analyzed the numbers, taking into account cap ex, possible vacancy, management, etc. and it is a great opportunity numbers-wise.) 

I have been a licensed Real Estate Agent for almost 10 years and have also branched into wealth and risk management as financial advisor.

My current focus is on Wholesale but I am completely open on taking on different strategies if the numbers make sense and the resources available.

BP is a great resource.  

I'm looking at getting a private money loan from Jordan David Financial Serviceshttp://jordandavidfs.com/Does anyone have any experience borrowing from this lender?

Your lawyer handles the financials of the purchase including the security deposits.

There a ton of FREE resources on BP.  

Little to no prior REI experience.One thing I do have though is a good network of resources to get myself studied up.

Our goal is to be financially free in 20 years, and use real estate as part of our investment portfolio to achieve that.
