I'm still doing research on this, but does anyone know if real estate investors qualify for small business grants?

We have an extensive list of qualified and experienced agents and brokers that can help you purchase your next property.

Drug addicts in recovery qualify as disabled and are protected by federal disability and housing laws.

There are WAY too many people looking for people like you and not all of them will be qualified to work with you.  

So depending on your situation, you might have to qualify as if you are fully paying for both properties.All of this is assuming you are looking to use conventional residential mortgage products.

You will get a great deal of suggestions and help here but it would be helpful to qualify your situation better so you get sent down the right roadBest,Jeff 

They also should have access to qualified contractors at reasonable rates.If you dont own the property, then the answer would be no.  

It is very tempting when you start out to use money to compensate for skills you still have to aquire.One of the golden rules is: you make money when you buy.

I am very interested to meet others investing in the area, and would greatly appreciate recommendations for skilled and trustworthy realtors and property managers, who are experienced with out-of-state investors.

@Kenneth Jackson It's about attitude and action.Before you worry yourself about your lack of knowledge and skill, you'd better work on attitude as RE is not for the timid.
