I think you should probably start looking at the bigger picture, let's say 4-5 years from now, rather than 1-2 years ... 

I am new to bigger pockets after reading the book on rental properties, becoming a real estate referral agent, and listening to some podcasts I figured I should sign up.

Hello,     I am new to the Bigger Pockets Forums and to Colorado, I am looking to buy my first home (cash).

New to Bigger Pocket, and the real estate investing community.

I found Bigger Pockets through the podcast and have been lurking here in the forums for a couple of weeks.  

Bigger cash flow in the bad areas if you can deal with the drama.

Hi Bigger Pockets Community,I am a licensed Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Mulinix in Norman, OK. 

They're not down for owner financing... i've spoken to a couple banks and they don't see the value in the purchase because they said they need a valuation on the property alone and not with the connecting properties (makes no sense to me) so now I've turned to Bigger Pockets and I need some suggestions.Breakdown: 1 Neighbor wants $1.3 million and the other i can get for 900k  both of these + my land brings total SF to around 18k+ sf of land. projects in the area have sold - just land value for approx $300/sf  this lot would be far superior given the location and it becoming a full city block... 

I know i got a nasty gram from the state when i proposed to do just one loan for someone.. and its next to impossible to find a guy like me NMLS licensed and state licensed to write these small loans for others.. simply no money in it..not worth the time.when most RMLO s can work on a regular bigger loan and make 5 to 15k fee.. 

Also, CamaPlan is very active on Bigger Pockets and have good reviews.
