A friend of mine is looking at getting a non collateral loan thru Plush Funding out of Florida, is anyone familiar with this company?

Golden Rule: They with the gold makes the rules. 

(And actually invested in another business with a partner of mine) I don't have money to invest in properties myself (or skin in the game as is popularly referred to) With that being said my credit isn't great and I obviously understand the greater than normal risks involved so I would be happy to take a cut in the profits for the first few deals with higher points as I save up for the down payments private/hml require(I read average is 20-35%) However, I have heard and read about PML/HML that will make deals based solely on the deal without requiring you to put your own money down or checking credit or anything involved because they use the property as the gaurantee.

I've always only bought turnkeys and I love mine.

We struck gold without realizing it back in the 90s, and we don't want to be low-balled, and it seems like they think we're naive.What do you think?

I personally am not one to invest in individual stocks, so aside from passive investments like index funds, gold, etc., what are investors to do?

Years ago a big windstorm broke off a limb on a tree located on the property next to mine.

Wow, that is a goldmine of tips @Ariel Vincent, thanks so much for sharing!

Hey BP,I want to begin my investing journey by finding a multi-family to house to hack for a price anywhere between $250,000 - $300,000.A friend of mine and I are considering going 50/50 on a down payment for the loan ($10-15k each) for an FHA loan.Are there any difficulties when dealing with 2 investors?

I've heard on some BP podcasts of investors purchasing buildings that have some sort of HUD contract (basically gold).
