I've been following the BiggerPockets on a regular basis for a couple of months now and have decided to upgrade into the community!

I was new to podcasts so it took me a couple months to start listening to the Bigger Pockets podcast.

One home would have only been owned for a couple months and the other just over a year.Any help would be very much appreciated. 

It's going solid so far besides a couple hiccups.

-Should I try to partner with someone on my first couple deals that understands the business side and just offer to cover the rehab side for equity in the deal? 

A couple quick ones:Your closing costs are way low unless you know something I don't or the seller is covering your closing.

Ask to talk to the owner, talk to the local chamber of commerce, hit the phones spend a couple hours a dialing. 

Google that term and you can read about how it can help you.I own a couple properties in flood zones, no a show stopper for me but proceed with caution. obviously house should be discounted when sold if in the flood zone but if you can get it at a deep discount with potential of removing it that could be a home run!!

Hello,I'm looking for some advice on the impact getting married will have on my/our ability to qualify for conventional financing.
