I've been a bigger pockets fan since 2017, read a lot of the BP books along with Rich Dad Poor Dad, and all the other essentials, and Michigan looks like a great market so I will definitely be interested in starting our investing career out there in the near future. 

Sounds like a good way to earn a bad reputation real fast. 

Hey guys!So here’s some background about me:I have been a welder for almost all of my adult life.I bought a triplex which I house hack in Tacoma, WA just over a year ago.I am wanting to rent out all units and buy anot...

I remember very early in my career I went to list a house in a tract neighborhood where it seemed like about every 4th house was the same floorplan....so plenty of good comps, same age, same size, same floorplan. 

My name is Jeremy Garrett and I just began my Realtor career in the beginning of September!

@Ed Balado Your private lender will be taxed on the interest income at her ordinary income tax rate, just like earned income from a job or interest on a bank savings account is taxed. 

The listing agent is usually happy to earn double the commission on the deal, but be prudent -- you will possibly be foregoing your right to representation in the deal by doing that, but with the right agent in can work. 

However, if your property is break-even now, it may earn you cash as you pay down the principal, increase rents, etc. 

I'm just beginning my wholesaling and Real Estate career and would love to just connect and learn with RE investors or other wholesalers from my area, or others as well. 

They had spent all their cash so they stopped making payments, the bank comes calling, and pretty soon all their assets come Crashing Down. it's good to grow fast but your growth rate should gradually slow down over time to make you sure you keep what you earned.
