In analyzing my numbers I’ve even tried to settle for a minimum profit just so I can get in the game and gain some experience.

I have a lot to learn about this real estate game and want to connect/learn from as many people as possible!

Very cool, I'm new to the game as well and from So Cal , I own one duplex in So Cal but am debating on trying to invest further here or venture out of state .

Also traditional lenders will require that you have 35% "skin" in the game.

I have a family friend who is retired and seeking to sell his portfolio of 8 properties (5SFH and 3 condos).

Get in the game!

Get in the game!

There aren’t any tricks or secret formulas.You’ll need money and good credit to go big in this game.

Gibson unless you are very game for a challenge then for your first deal I wouldnt take on the risk and the headache of new construction or such a large rehab.

I was thinking if talks fail with the marketing agent, perhaps leverage my relationship with the acquisition agent to get the marketing agent to up their game; The acquisition agent wont want to lose my repeat business.
