Credit Default Insurance is very common in Europe it used to be offered in the US but not anymore as far as I know.

I am looking/already have for the following:Realtor - Someone who is willing to work with out of state investors, and kind of guide me through the process of selecting good investment. 

A patch kit or asphalt over it all is very common.

New investor here in MN and I just kind of wanted to try and get a discussion going from a number of investors regarding your view points on investing in a fairly hot market and economy.

@John S LewisWhat kind of RE do you want to get into?

@James Evans this is a common issue with 1-4  unit properties.

And even asking him what kind of properties he was interested in and possibly looking for properties with those criteria and just letting him know about them. 

Thanks for your kind words. 

If we buy it, make it our primary residence, and sell it in 6-8 months, what kinds of taxes will we owe on the profit?

We are looking for a loan or investor but not a partner, the idea of doing some kind of crowd funding project might also be an interesting approach but was looking for some examples of that.Thanks, Fritz
