A piece of the action.

I am personally aware of at least 4 specific groups  (including RTR) promoting that market to their investors, which can create somewhat of an artificial market.

This way you can earn your stripes, learn, and potentially build seed money/relationships needed to get into a deal yourself and get a piece of the action. 

You want honesty and transparency.Last piece of advice; I suggest you come to Birmingham if you plan on investing here.

My real estate agent and I have been looking for some lots and I can not find a piece of “shovel ready” land so i’ve given up on that.

My favorite is to buy wholesale and sell retail by splitting a larger piece into smaller lots, usually build ready with utilities, a well share, and a road agreement.

Message me with 4 pieces of info and I'll give you exactly what it will cost : Purchase price, Rehab budget, Expected ARV, and your estimated FICO.   

You need a good lawyer, a good accountant, a good maintenance crew, and the most important, a good piece of software!

If it is properly designed, it's a great tool and "piece of the pie".  

@Nick Hulsman, while active duty we used bonus money, set aside the extra funds after a promotion, any tax returns, we got tax free from being in hostile fire zones...we just got scrappy to save up the money to do the next deal.
