I'm the Xer trying to catch up on retirement, I don't have time to wait for the cycle to be ideal, so finding great deals is the only priority.

Ideally, I'm looking for a situation that I could work side by side with a seasoned investor/contractor in exchange for some sort of profit split.

The MF market is just crazy hot right now, with a lot of properties selling for "perfection" and maybe I'm just trying to talk myself out of putting the work in because I know the odds are pretty long right now.

I've bin here for about a year now and worked all kinds of odd jobs.

They typically want massive down payments (25%+) and will only give you 12 months max to exercise your option.Your goal as a lease option investor is to get into the property with as little out of pocket as possible (ideally $0) with a below market rent and a below market purchase price with as much time to exercise as you can get.

Hello all,     I'm looking for a licensed GC in the Cleveland area, who has experience working with HUD and the 203(k) process, and who holds 500k or preferably 1M general liability insurance, ideally already registered in Willowick, but that isn't mandatory.

I asked about short sales and they haven't/won't file for one of those, which I find odd, because due to my limited knowledge of estates, I don't believe the IRS can force beneficiaries to settle debts of the estate. 

Calling you all lending guru.....This is a odd question I know....So I have a timeshare that I bought years ago for $50K ish cash....No mortgage, but there is a on going HOA monthly charges of like $400 a month.....In my refi, bank saw that and added it to DTI calculation...

In reality, I will use it for old buildings that have little uncovered closets below staircases or odd corners.

But ideally I want to move more into non recourse loans so it's not an issue.
