Go to the American BP lots of info on plex investing.

The people at American Escrow do some hard money lending.

This is a good strategy.http://www.dallas-ecodev.org/We have a 320 unit apt community in north Dallas that we are in a capital raise right now and although not the most important factor for why we are selecting this market / project, having Toyota building / relocating it North American headquarters 10m away is a catalyst for direct 4,500 jobs / 1,000 indirect jobs in the area and is something that definitely is a positive to the deal.

This limits your choices of lenders and will require higher down payments and reserves than you might see with a loan on which you are pledging a personal guarantee, but it is still a powerful way to use leverage in your retirement plan and generate higher overall cash-on-cash returns.The leading lenders are First Western Federal Savings and North American Savings Bank.

If you choose the right escrow company (I like First American Title in Seattle), they can actually draft up all of these for you for free, so you can save those attorney fees (unless you really want to).HELOC would also be good for reserve funds.  

Sadly, most American's think about it but never do anything, only to end up relying on their family and the government.

I have no complaints, I have also had colleagues use him as well.He was the past president of the local chapter of the American Society of Home Inspectors, so apparently his peers thought he was capable as well.I have no affiliation with him, other than having used him professionally. 

In just about every American town DOM is very short.

The Census Bureau’s 2013 American Housing Survey included a series of questions on whether tenants were having trouble paying the rent.
