I have talked to many contractors at REI events that have been able to acquire hard money and will take deals all day just to stay busy. 

Hi, just wondering what type of properties two recent college grads, with about 40K in saved money can invest in (in terms of rental/student housing), in order to start acquiring properties while also working at our full time jobs.

Honestly, I probably would've used a HML for the first 3 and refi'd those vs. the way I acquired them traditionally with 25% down.

But, I'd like to get into investing as my main career and do sales as an occasional job.I'm just starting to get into real estate investing.  

I forgot to mention that i plan on acquiring my first investment in about a year from now.

Hi everyone,I live in Hong Kong and just starting investing in Real Estate here.I have a very good lead, let me present it to you all.In a commercial building, the man own a office room high floor, he bought that office for investment for a year ago, he did not touch anything in the property and put it on the market for sale with a large markup.After a 9 months on the market he decided to lower the price, still after 4 month with the lower price no buyers.I then come in and ask the seller if he will consider owner finance on his property as he only have a small loan that is nearly paid.The owner said yes to owner financing and waiting for my offer.I have visited the property and understand why the landlord have not been able to rent or sale, the place was previously owned by a church, the all atmosphere and decoration is very much like a church... so really difficult to rent it as it is for office space or similar. 

These functions include conducting face to face sales, over the phone sales, and internet sales.

I also have a duplex and fourplex for sale in Jacksonville. 

Up until now it has worked well in organization acquisition, rehab, marketing, sales and even rental leads.

Always do the math analysis and try to look at all properties if you have the time to look at prospective properties before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the sales contract that allows you the time (about 10 days) to make a detailed inspection on the prospective property and possibly get out of the deal without a penalty that will hurt you too much.Do not try to do everything yourself.
