Lucky or not, the fact you're in the REI game is the biggest fear that you've overcome.DM'ing you for more information about desired deals.

Everyone we have networked with says we must have skin in the game to do any kind of joint ventures/learn from them or even join a team, which we would love to do, however we basically gave our life savings to a family member to deal with a health battle.

My name is Kyle and I have been a BiggerPockets Pro member since late 2017, and have finally developed the courage to put myself out there after a lot of research and listening to podcasts earlier this year.

But once you get a few more miles West you reach an area that is experiencing a high volume of new development.

Hi all, I remember listening to a biggerpockets podcast (the subject was wholesaling) where the guest mentioned a "blue book" that he had developed that was like a script for his employees to follow when speaking with a seller or buyer in regards to owner financing.

I think newer investors should use direct mail as a way of learning the game before they invest money on the other techniques that get you in touch with sellers more directly.

I've set time in my schedule each week for REI research and professional development that PB will definitely be part of.I also would really like to get involved in a local REI community, So thanks, @Alexander Wardell for the suggestion, I will look into the upcoming events for the Boston Real Estate Guild!

There's also room to develop if I want to later on. 1 park is mostly owner-occupied, but it has some cash flow from POHs- which I can also sell and use the profit to buy 4 more homes to fill vacant lots.

That said, there is clear evidence (with research to back it up) that the brain of a person age 19 is not fully developed.

Alternatively you can use private or hard money for both the purchase and the rehab but you’ll most likely need to have skin in the game and put down 20-30%.
