As the customer, the difference between Neighbor as the business, and the "host", do not really matter to me.

Send the deals directly to the agents (who you can find by doing #1 above on earlier properties).They all have different buying criteria, different contingencies, different inspection practices and requirements, and different requirements for their purchases.

It is a very different market now.There was only one time I recommended arbitrage to another member.

I stopped using them and got better results with a different postcard - mailing to the same list.

agree with the other comment, different markets are doing different things. also, "be greedy when others are fearful." what people might be afraid of is, lots of commercial ARMs coming up on their rate adjustments, & the new rates (compared to 5y ago when they first purchased) will kill their cashflow, so they'll sell, and if everyone is doing this at once, supply might outweigh demand, everyone has to sell for less than they planned, and everyone who hangs on to their similar properties gets to recalculate their estimated mkt value with the new going cap rates. i don't personally think this is going to cause as insane of a shift as some people do, but it's all speculative, we won't know til it happens. if you can find a deal that pencils with 30y fixed debt, do it. 

Loopholes are often used in illegal ways.In this case, it is just the law, the rules, the regs...it was designed this way and is working as directed.I think it is important to make sure people understand the differences.

Hi,I am a new comer in real estate investment community and looking for different platforms and syndications.Not sure this is right a forum to ask...I have done investing through couple of crowdsource platforms like Realtymogul and Arrived.

Could someone share where I should start. if you think about it, it's different product right,tax liens are basically investing at distressed property/people while mortgage note is basically investing at flips and also rehab property.

I can walk you through several projects currently in progress at different stages and answer questions, etc. 

@Tara Unruh one of the first things want to educate yourselves on is Property Classes.Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.
