I got my bill for my house in Lake Oswego from Safeco which I had had for years and it was always around 2k to 2.3 k  i get the bill its 6k.. i call my agent and told him no way.. and he hunted around and found me something maybe 500 cheaper .. so I thought I have a aaa card I know they sell insurance and are reputable.. walk in there 1800 bucks done and I have full  basement ( which is rare on a new home in Oregon) and they gave me a much higher insurance amount if my sump pump fails.. bottom line shop.u

Hey guys i have a general question,if im buying land for my friend to build a house on and we decide to sell it later...how should the profits be split?

I have a conventional 30 year loan on the old house(lived there for 2+ years) and private loan on the new one for now.

I still want to design but Id also like to develop at some point or do both eventually.

I joined bigger pockets to meet with like-minded investors and start my career goal of fixing and flipping houses. 

Many houses with obvious distress are not going to qualify for conventional financing.

I have experience flipping houses, and working with investors on residential and commercial projects.

For example in Texas a finder is limited to a maximum fee of 10% of the net amount received by the beneficiary, thereby eliminating from profitability a significant percentage of deals.This is the same over hyped, over promoted, over promised, under performing opportunity as note broker, house wholesaler, etc.

You should be transparent will sellers because doing otherwise could be illegal (if you have insane person sign a contract to sell a house for $1, or mislead and lie to seller about their property value in order get a contract you could be liable for fraud.

I am trying to decide if i want to move forward with this house?
