Hi Gene,What kind of numbers are you looking for?  

Remember when looking at value you need to look at all the factors involved - including the neighbors.  

Last year I diversified some of the funds out of real estate now that it has become overvalued.I found BP through a Google search of an under performing company I got involved with called Asset Ventures who does their best to modify delinquent second mortgages.  

Good luck...There is a lot more advice you will be given but these are the two easiest ways to get involved locally and to learn about investing. 

Question involves how to make it work with the contractor paperwork-wise.  

But there are definitely questions to ask before getting involved with a project.

Do both 50/50 sides of family have to be involved in the transaction?

@Blake BroomerWelcome fellow Pennsylvanian.It also depends on what activity that you are doing, flipping, buy and hold, rehabs, wholesale, commercial, development, etc.There are tax implications, as well as liability issues, and anonymity also.The PA Dept of State has an online file that you can check to see if the proposed name is in use.In most cases I'd recommend that the entity name not contain either you first or sur names.In any event, the best advise would be to contact a PA attorney to help decide the type of entity, your planned work and possible other parties involved. 

I think this is just a good record keeping bill, and is fair to those involved. 

I want to be involved in the American system that provides living accommodations to those who are looking for it.
