Bottom line is I think this is a great location for me but a marginal deal.

The bottom line is that if you are looking to hold on to this property for a while and it cash flows at this rate (assuming this is a 30 year fixed rate loan) you don't want to go hard money.

You must know your market and know what that financial cost will do to your bottom line.

Over the years I've found dual closing rules to be like bell bottoms (in or out of style).

I have to hand it to you.. your Smart ambitious and made it happen.you would succeed in any sales venture.. you could become a top agent and make Lots of money with a team of agents.. but you chose to do what you do.because of the naiveté of so many doing wholesaling and the bottom barrel feeders that teach it.. there is a lot of harm that happens and I suspect over the years the states are going to crack down on those who sell real estate without a licesne and.. equitable interest is just a bunch of BS  its a scheme your marketing for sellers your marketing for buyers your putting the two together for compensation.you try to arugue that its not you lose.. its just up to the states to decide if they want to enforce the laws.

Golfed 18 rounds there once and barely broke a sweat (it was great!).

My insurance agent gave me the same advice -- get umbrella coverage for the value of the assets (rounded up to the next million [or more if you're worried about it]).

@Adam Boonzaayer it might, but here's the bottom line: if you have some family/friends that will help you if/when you need it, you should be able to get it done.

You can then act as the manager of the LLC and control all transactions yourself without the intermediary delays, paperwork and fees.The bottom line is that both IRA and 401(k) plans may be self-directed, and provide the flexibility to invest more broadly and be diversified. 

I’ll start making my rounds as soon as I get back.
