It will save you in the end, when you have differing opinions or someone thought something was the other person and job and vice versa.I've got quite a few clients that are flippers, and have solid Hard Money contacts.

If nothing else will work out, I think leasing the second and third floors together is a solid backup plan - that would still get the property into cash flow positive territory.

I have a solid income but want to know how to cash out refi so I am in position to purchase more properties.I understand that I need to work with a local bank, most likely.

The area is a solid area for the type of return we are looking for.

Use a short-term note, a solid professional team, and you''ll be in decent shape.

. - buy a solid single family home in an appreciating area like Tampa.

We have filed a complaint with the local police and have also filed another one with the Internet Crimes division since Title company has not furnished any evidence of the same ( they claimed they have done these as well).

@Brandon Boyce - Local Facebook real estate investor groups, by attending local RE meetups, direct mailing campaigns, paying a VA to cold call, word of mouth by telling everyone you're a real estate investor, maintaining solid relationships with sellers (I've had an off market property sourced to me from a seller of a property I bought), developing relationships w/ wholesalers and investor focused agents who have "pocket listings". 

Give an agent value by letting them earn a commission and they will make you a solid investor and can learn and get your license later. 

@Nick Philippakos While that's a solid amount of money in the bank, I can see the lenders having a tough time lending to a person who does not have a stable income.
