In terms of the niche, everyone has different preferences, so if you're talking feedback from others, make a decision based on what would work best for you and your wife.

Often times, even the best database has stale data because they are reliant on the asset manager self-reporting (which doesn't always happen). 

Each LLC has costs associated with it, so unless its necessary, my preference is to minimize expenditure.

There are several IRA based vehicles that would not be impacted by the presence of employees and would provide great flexibility for alternative asset investing.

It's personal preference, but I wouldn't do it.Adding A/C: Assuming $4,000 to get an extra $50/month, that's a payback of 80 months, almost 7 years.

The question is, how do i show the lender that we have the total assets needed to cover the down payment when i will be acquiring some of it from my partner?

My "reserves" are actually invested in equal parts cash, long-term Treasury bonds, the total work stock market, and gold, which is a very defensive asset allocation that should theoretically hold its value and likely grow in just about any economic environment.

Hi All ,I am doing some research on Trust Deed ( Performing Notes only ) and have found few providers through the reference from BP and also doing an organic search on the Internet.Have anyone used company Paper Assets Capital (PAC) to buy Trust Deed ( Performing Notes only)?

Due diligence and hiring an attorney prior to the deal instead of after the deal is preferable but not infallible. 

So there is no question in my mind all these folks that think Hey I will just help these people and let them invest with me while I do all the work.. etc.. run a huge risk.. and for what to buy some low value asset to make a few grand a year.. not sure like I said why anyone would do that.. but I suspect its taught at some of the note schools.. and we know gurus are not on the front lines of what is legal and not.other wise there would be no reason for the bigger established players to create 500 series funds.. no need at all they would just JV all the notes.. easy peasy... in CA you can fractionalize notes legally without securities but you need to be a CA broker or NMLS or have consumer finance license all these states have their thing.. that was part of my problem in Oregon..
