Lastly, word of advice, even after your transaction is complete if not done according to the law, the sellers can come back on this transaction even 2 years after the fact (kind of risky)I tell you this not to scare you but to inform you.

Then, I thought what the heck...I can learn something.I don't have those kind of deep pockets.

It's kind of a hassel, but it works.)Hope that helps!

What kind of investing do you do/want to do?

I know that's an extremely broad question, but that's just the kind of education I am looking for right now: broad.

Personally, I don't like using "private, hard or whatever kind of money" unless you also really know what you are doing here.

What kind of deal structure should I expect?

Welcome Angela, This is by far the best place to learn all kinds of things to help you become successful!

That would depend on what kind of note it is..................Commercial, residential etc.Options: Payoff, refi, sell, bring in an equity partner etc.

Kind of crazy because I wouldn't see many and now it seems there have been a ton.
