By communicating with several brokers as well as individuals, I have a great circle of agents sending me properties to consider as well as financing leads.  

The point of Kiyousaki's materials is that "rich" is not what is in your wallet, it's what between your ears.  

Even if it is a commercial transaction, individuals are under different rules than regulated institutions.

At rental prices go down the amount of expendable income available to individuals and families goes up.

Brokers might look at the best deals for themselves first but that doesn't mean they can buy them all or take down all deal sizes.I have some clients with millions and some individuals with tens of millions.

I would suggest the private individual route as well.

In some cases people are desperate and individual owners are more likely than management companies to forego the actual processing.In any case, we are not wasting an applicants money.In all cases we will take the FIRST qualified applicant. 

You'll be able to meet others who have dealt with these individuals and also sense their integrity and reliability.Stay away from anonymous online lenders, if that's how you found this one, and anyone else making fantastic promises.

The tenants will pay their individual electric/gas, but I would be responsible for heating the home. 4. 

@Erik Stark I hear you 100%, I'm not one to run to the gurus and their flashy signs and promises of getting rich quick.
