Will you be helping throughout my business plan?

Any liens, bankruptcy, IRS, etc...do your title search.3.

I am looking for someone with good systems and processes they use in their success than I can try and implement into my future business plan and one day be able to return the favor. 

In NYC starting a midterm rental business.

I currently lean toward upstate NY and MI (Detroit metro) as I live in the west but have family in Canada not far from those locations and the idea of being able to visit family with trips that can double as business write-offs is appealing.

It's a bit cheaper and less busy.

You might also meet someone that could be a potential business partner.

In any relationship, business or personal setting expectations up front can make the difference between success and failure.

Make sure your broker’s loan docs are at least traceable to a lending attorney (not off the web, title company, broker’s brother’s jailmate, etc.).

What are some companies you've worked with, pros/cons of their business and amount in fees they charge?
