Pay close attention to learning about various investing tactics, including wholesaling, fix and flips, rental properties, and home hacking.

After working with a lot of lenders over the years, the most important thing for me is their level of customer service (will they provide a lender letter promptly for you when you need to write an offer quickly, call the listing agent to help you get your offer accepted, pick up their phone for you, etc.) and do they close on time?

The title company that did the closing, had a bunch of recordings that day and unwittingly had the county record the HELOC first, and seconds later time/date stamped the senior.

if you're looking at 1-4 unit properties, don't kill yourself trying to create an LLC just yet. find your lender first then see if they'll require you to close in an LLC or not. single-member LLCs do not provide as much legal protection as we would like to think, so if that's your reasoning for wanting to create one right off the bat, that's just something to consider. as far as a business license, AFTER you close on the property, call the town hall and ask if they want you to have one there bc you're collecting rent there. if you're using a PM company, they will probably say no. :)

You may be able to change title to the LLC after closing, but that can create another set of problems.

Most get bid up too close to full retail to be worth the risk but every week I see one or two properties go at a bargain. 

There are many options online that can help you calculate your ROI, but the formula is relatively simple:Total Cost to Invest (purchase price + rehab + any holding costs + commissions and closing costs on both sides of the transaction)Net Profit (sales price - total cost)Formula: Net profit / Total Cost = ROI %Also, not sure if you would like access to a spread sheet/calculator that can do this for you, but I have created my own. 

We  closed on a 128 unit deal last year, price of 9.6 million, and the owner held $450,000 as part of the down payment.We've also done deals with 80% bank and 20% seller carry back.The cycle has shifted to where seller financing is being used more often.Good LuckGino

Hey guys,I was just wondering if has gone through the process of a bank calling a loan due on a subject to closing?

Similarly the average time to close a sale rose by 13.7% to reach 83 days.
