But if you're relatively new to the field, and have no financial strength whatsoever or experience in multifamily, you will not get access to these high leverages.

Just curious if people here ALSO do online trading of any sort..

Would it be legal to just trade info. for a price?

A good rule of thumb for ALL licences is do NOT get it if you do not intend to practice that trade.

Ideally within the next 10 years we’ll like to have built an investor, client, property portfolio large enough to positioning ourselves as a publicly traded company and becoming an R.E.I.T.Like Buffet is to stocks, (insert business name) will be to real estate.

My two cents ( I don't sell, broker, exchange or trade in Detroit) .Get an advice from someone who has no interest other then help you.

Again I'm not "crafty", or "sly", nor do I want to be misleading whatsoever.

Hell, Fannie and Freddie are now accepting 125% LTV and the Cap and Trade bill has a provision that ALL homes must meet new energy standards per the EPA before they can be sold.Can you imagine what an inspection will cost???

Ofgift As far as I know (my wife is a realtor), there is no conspiracy whatsoever to keep FSBO sellers who list on the MLS from getting traffic.

One is currently accepted but is foreclosed and still has a tenant from hell squatting in it, he won't allow anyone in the property's first two floors and wants $7k cash for keys and a showing haha Anyway, I have a couple of cash partners lined up and my goal is to purchase multi families with decent cash flow at closing, make wise improvements, and gradually trade up in size via flips or 1031's into some very large properties which will support us full-time when we get there.
