Though I'm no expert the logic presented above does not ring true to my gut feeling and on the ground observations, but I could be wrong ...

Hi BP Peeps,I've been asked by a local group to give a presentation on "Finding Money" to invest in RE and I'm looking for some more ideas/input.  

Will this present a problem closing on a new loan?

My cash is @ $50k for the investment at present.

Question for the experienced investors from a hopeful soon to be investor, i've got a job which averages at $35,000 a year and i'm renting an apartment presently.

I am having a little difficulty designing my present flip.  

Selling notes is common for banks.It seems like you are more interested in presenting a bunch of opinion and wanting someone else to do the work for you to to prove it wrong than you are in actually growing your knowledge.

We are partnering with an experienced investor who's assisting us in every aspect of the process and recently met an experienced HML who is also going above and beyond to help analyze the deals presented to ensure our first flip is successful for all involved. 

I just get a little nervous thinking of talking to them but I'm working on my mindset shift and keeping in mind it's not asking for money it's presenting an opportunity. 

Hello, I have been in construction for over 40 years, I am presently looking to get my Real estate License so that I can help people who want to get involved in flips.
