I have worked as a proof operater at Premier West Bank, loan processor at Spartan and Associates, loan processor/webmaster with America One Finance.I specialize in multifamily property finance.

Thanks for the special info page on Sec. 8 Josh.

There are a lot of colleges now that offer degrees or specializations in real estate investing, development, or management.

All it requires is ambition and some specialized knowledge.

Make sure whatever lawyer you use that they specialize in real estate.

Anyway, I would recommend that you seek advice from a qualified attorney that specializes in real estate.

I have to applogozie for my puppeteer routine....I should have also stated that I am an experienced mortgage broker, been in the industry for 8 years, the last 2 specializing in investment loans.I could give you the names of over 25 people that have successfully closed rehab loans based upon the after repaired value with no verification of income or assets.

That said, the money may have been his or it may have been borrowed -- there are some lenders (transactional lenders) who specialize in loaning money for double closing situations.

My firm specializes in finding property at 70% of market value or less , and assigning the contract to cash investors.We specialize in short-sales w/ lenders.

If you don't specialize, I don't think you will succeed, because there is so much to learn.
