I use Loopnet & have had been a paid member when I'm actively looking for a property.

Problem is that in some areas, and regulators, may examine the extent of the commercial activity compared to the type of loan being made.

I am a young 21 year old guy on active duty in the army.

If you look at the UK market let me know as I am active there.

If so was it a common activity or more of a one-off?

I manage several properties in the Philadelphia area for an investor I know and the market there is very active.

Hence borrowing money is a challenge when your credit file shows very little activity and a short history.

It is the oldest RE website on the net with a large, active community.Again, my only connection is to know some of the people who participate in the discussions and I paid real money to buy the manual.

Any landlords (or even investors) here who are active in Dayton?

As the thread is active it will keep coming up as 'new activity'.
