I am a self employed. 

I assume some of the more savvy investors employ people that are experts in these areas. 

Her experience includes over ten years as a manager and bookkeeper including the bookwork for an employer who owned multiple rental properties.Our Team:Our team of professional includes: Real Estate Investing Consultant, Realtors, Accountant, Insurance Agent, Banker, and Real Estate Attorney.

I contacted the company who is listed on the PropCard, but they said I'd have to get in touch w Metlife directly- they can't give me any info.Metlife HL is kaput according to a Mortgage Officer I contacted who was previously employed with them.I've tried looking through the clerk's website to find any docs related to that legal description for the property, but it's not working.  

I am self employed but my main source of income is a business I have owned for 5 years.I am looking for a lender I can build a relationship with, understands my goals and knows what needs to be done in order to get me the loans needed.Any advice and recommendations are greatly appreciated.Thank you

It wasn't until my Fortune 500 company employer fired me that I got some clarity: I was basically unemployable (by others) and loved the idea of being my own boss. 

I hope i can become self-employed starting with gathering the relevant knowledge and skills to sign my first deal. 

A market where there's population & strong employment growth, low cost of living, great schools, and tourism just to name a few.I currently own a duplex in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

I'm self-employed and have max out my solo 401(k) plan, but if I were working a job, I would, at the least, invest up to the max of any company match I was eligible for.
