And always use a professional property management company to protect your cash-flow assets!

I came across this site as well as the podcasts last week and am very excited to start learning from all the professionals involved in this community!

I have been in the background most of the time - listening, learning and privately messaging some of you like @Curt S, Ali B, Sharon V, Brian G, Marco S, Brandon T --And I have been getting a lot of value from this community of friendly, helpful and wonderful professionals.

I use whitepages.com and I'm surprised by how accurate some of the search results are - it's still far from perfect but gets the job done for me around 70% of the time.I'm curious to hear from other BP investors about what they use -does anyone use LexusNexus or any other of the professional services?

SEC strict laws on marketing for investors.1) Syndication- setup an entity structure to pool Canadian investors or professionals to invest in a multi-family property with me managing the project.2) Meetups- conduct meetings on 'Retirement Planning' (RRSP- IRA equivalent) or "How to Make $s flipping properties in the U.S."

Was the transaction closed with a professional or privately?

I am slowly transitioning from a landlord that tenants knows owns the property and has his cell phone number into a professional appearing, buildium using landlord so as to remove as much personal contact as possible.  

The best way to ensure the client receives a marketable note is to have it originated professionally.

Many of the real estate professionals that i'm talking to have never heard of double closings etc..or never done them.Any recommendations anyone?

I do the rental on most of them but I have a professional manager do the apartment building due to the constant dremands it has, they also do 2 houses for me.
