I'm planning to purchase a rental property within the next three months and seeking a realtor to work with and help me with the acquisition. 

I've already got my first and second deals underway via my own cash/credit, now that that is tapped out I want to work on private money before seeking hard money.

Then seek clear title......

The landlord may file for eviction, if the owner of a building with three residential units or less seeks to personally occupy a unit, or has contracted to sell the residential unit to a buyer who wishes to personally occupy it and the contract for sale calls for the unit to be vacant at the time of closing.

Cayce,I think it is best you seek an attorneys advice on this, it would be worth the $ for you, if you think of doing it. i Partnered with my brother just recently on a rental property, but we partnered going into the deal. we have an operating agreement written up and signed on how things will run and how expenses and profits ( if any ) are split. i understand that he refinanced and pulled his original investment out and that you are splitting the equity that is left. is the IRA going to be responsible for 1/2 of the 200k mortgage now ?

Most toilets were down though, so I'm breathing a sign of relief (LOL!)

I get a lot of overflow from the 2 much more expensive housing areas seeking value.  

A better way to do this is with an Excel Sheet using Goal Seek like this one:Goal Seek for Max ValueGood Luck!

Good Afternoon BP,I am interested in searching deeper into commercial real estate investing, and I am seeking advice on how to find off-market commercial real estate deals.

Im always seeking advice and coaching as well.
