Thanks, @Wayne Brooks - those are the kind of specifics I was after.

Consider talking to your insurance agent about what kind of insurance you need.

That is kind of what I was thinking...that it would be iffy going conventional.

I wouldn't advise buying and holding properties in war zones because they usually come with all kinds of problems like vandalism, theft, squatters, poor quality tenants, etc., but I would definitely do wholesale deals there.

There are several kinds of bankruptcy, there is a reorganization where they try to stay in business.

None of which are the kind of thing that talk real estate but they all made me think deeply about how I view the world and how I act within it.

In the past, this kind of seminar has no content, just a big pitch about how wonderful the guru and his program are.

HI Martin,Could you kindly explain "Once I have the homes fixed up I get a loan from a local bank" ?

I am part of Aug 19th meet-up, but looking for a more steady kind of gatherings.
