Is anyone familiar with Real Estate jobbers , if so how has that experienced workout for you ?

A lot of times partnerships don't work out and one person winds up doing all the work.

Hey Daniel,How did things work out for you with buying the single family home with a renter?

I stay stressed to the max all day every day but the best thing for me is to devote one hour to work out every day no matter what.

The job is a means to build a bank roll for investment.This job may work out as it is with family and there is an understanding that I may be out of commission here and there.The lack of recent employment history is concerning and I will have to meet with my bank rep soon.

@Kevin Fletcher yes, that's usually per property, unless you can work out a "bulk" deal where they may give you a slight discount to do multiple searches.

I work out of San Ramon and have been doing accounting and taxation for 8 years.

If your numbers work out nicely, your tenants pay you to build equity in your properties.You need two years of tax returns before most banks will count rental income towards your gross income.

Just wanted to make local folks who are new to REI aware of a good "Creative Real Estate Investing" class offered at the Wake Tech Community College (six evening sessions for I think something like $65 registration fee).

I spoke at the BP Convention in Denver a couple years ago and BP has that and all the other sessions recorded and available for sale.
