1 Set a realistist list price for the property2 When you reject an offer please let the agent that it listed with know why it is rejected maybe we can bring the transaction together.3 Don't make us pay out of pocket for work done on the property and expenses to maintain it.4 Don't pay a reduced commission and require a referal fee5 Understand when we say the price is to high we can back it up and will and most likely already have.6 If it is in an area that we don't work let us reject the listing without fear that this is the last call we will get.( You don't want to know how much of a pain it is to drive 60 miles to drop off "all original paperwork")7 Don't sit on offers for a week without some kind of communication.

I have been going on bigger pockets site for a while but have never posted.

You usually cant get out of this without paying some money out of pocket and the better your credit, the better you will do.Also, make sure the dealer is giving you what your car is worth in Actual Cash Value (ACV).

Then something strange happen...other day I Searched for Bigger Pockets because I forgot to bookmark it and when I clicked your link it in yahoo...it redirected me to some wacky search site.....

If I remember correctly, their business model was to sell rehabbed property at 80% ARV which would allow the investor to get in at no money out of pocket while maintaining an 80% LTV.

So if you estimate costs well then yes you can do it with no money out of pocket at all.Are there any Investors in Atlanta or anywhere close that would be interested in mentoring me??

I feel like I could read Bigger Pockets a million times a month by myself!

Fix it up and pocket more than the 18k that you say you can get now.

It might be worth your time to just do some serious reading on here and talking with experienced investors and you're likely to have very littke out of pocket for your education as a result.Good luck!

i mean, you can definitely buy real estate with little or no money out of your pocket, but it can be just as risky as any other type of investing.why is it risky?
