I also am entering real estate to build wealth and passive income, while keeping my w2 for benefits.

Besides, if we are entering in to an inflationary period, I would rather make a return on my cash invested (15% C.O.C. roughly) What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

BP site wouldn't allow $0 so entered $1 ;) Private contract with seller.

Full time college student here. I am wondering where I should start in the real estate field. What jobs are great for entry level positions in real estate?

The paint, garage door replacement, and cracks are all necessary to fix get a renter (they enter through the garage to access their private entrance).

As I recall, the lenders in the 70s and 80s were all working for:Jake, the black-jack, Benny the bat, Bobby the blade (now with BoA) and Mike the Mummy (who just retired from Wells Fargo).As more entered the market more competition evolved IMO and while these guys all have relatives or were mentors to many in the business today, just like boot-legging, the business has become more respectable.I suggest you find your own hard money lender, like grandma who gets 1.5% on her CDs

IMO, the "knowing" is a past business transaction or related by blood or marriage, it's not that I know he is the owner of drug store.If you have A & B & C, C & B have done business in the past and so have A & B, then before the three join in some entity, A & C should conduct some business transaction and complete it before they enter as the three partners.

I would cash flow right away, but entering a whole new territory and lots of risk by taking it on myself.

Two of them waited for around 5 hours at the fire for me to get to the home.If you enter the home, proceed with extreme caution.

So, it's not in someone's best interest to try and enter into a contract and not have the authority to do so.The safety net will be at closing, as the settlement agent will require them to provide the necessary LLC docs showing they have the authority to act, the deal won't close without it, so you can leave that to your closing agent.
