I can't promote my own content, PM if you would like to know more.I would never use any LOC (HELOC or otherwise) as a down payment for a piece of real estate.

@Jamie Henkin i heard about Norada RE, they advertise on Podcasts etc, I think they are Promoters of TK providers... not not the actual source, I like to work with the source as much as possible, unless the deal is good anyway.  

An employer plan is meant to be used as an active savings vehicle, not just a conduit for holding funds contributed elsewhere.I will be honest, I see a lot of over-promotion of the Solo 401k here on BP, some of which may sell a plan today but would potentially put an investor at risk of being out of compliance with Department of Labor guidelines in the future. 

@Clint W. would collect a 2% fee of all income generated.All remaining income is split at a ratio that is decided ahead of time: 50%-50%, or 70%-30%, etc.So for example:Investor A invests $100,000.00 for a property as a silent partner / equity partner.The property nets $15,000.00 annual cash flow.Investor A would start with $10,000.00 annual return (10% of invested amount)Chris would collect $300.00 (2% of total income)The remaining $4,700.00 would be split based on the agreement - say it's a 50-50 split, so $2,350.00 to both parties.At this point Chris is getting $2,650 per year, or roughly 17% of the annual cash flow.The investor is making $12,350.00, which is a 12% ROI for them.I've found that this sort of partnership agreement works smoother, promotes successful management, and is an incentive to improve the property.I'm sure there are other - and quite possibly better - options that others can suggest.

What gives you (or the government) the right to decide what business arrangements two adults are allowed to make regarding their own bodies.You know, based on your comments above, it sounds like you believe prostitution should be illegal solely because it tends to promote other illegal activities that are indirectly related to it; is that your justification for why it should be illegal?

Whether he doesn't want to dance with Mayweather Promotions or knows Manny would lose can be debated all day long.

It would be helpful if they would mention some of the rules of thumb, such as 2%, 50%, 70%, just to promote conservatism with the numbers.

5) Is the post obviously self promoting?

In full disclosure, I have already won his past promotion to the very first BP REI Summit, where he not only paid for the ticket, but also allowed and extra $500 for flight/expenses or whatever!

Guys - This isn't a thread for advertising your company or services . . . if anyone wants to promote their company, we've got a Classifieds forum for just that.
