From the options I’ve seen, one allows you to hang your license to primarily use it for your own investment activities, another is a solid/more aggressive investor that teaches you how to work with distressed owners and turn that into a wholesale opportunity, listing etc., and I think the other one is more of a mix of those two.

I was leaning towards waiting to see how the first one went to get some comfortability; But I also don’t want to miss out on the possible opportunities.

I got cold feet when I seen the condition of the place, but on the flip side that is where the opportunity lies. 

I have found that the Waianae coast offers some good values still, but most people shy away from that area, which in my opinion creates potential opportunity, but also risk.

Or would it be better to take out equity for this particular opportunity?

Definitely value add opportunities in that area for single family and small multi family investments that hit at least the 1% rule.

Every real estate investment deal starts with the opportunity.

Hello everyone,I recently came across an opportunity with my dads house and I’d like to get the perspective/guidance of more seasoned investors.
