What cottage industries will form to pre-qualify accredited investors for promoters?

What type of equity (profit sharing) partnership is considered normal standard in our industry?

I highly recommend:"How I Turned $1,000 into Five Million in Real Estate" by William Nickerson"Landlording" by Leigh Robinson (it is the best selling LL book of all time)"Buy and Hold Forever" by David Schumacher and Steve DexterI recently read Rich Weese's book and liked it a lot.The Flip book was average at best.

At best this property would break-even.San Fransisco has an (overall) average rent-to-value ratio of about 0.4% -- far below what an investor can get in other markets with stronger economics and lower purchase prices.I think eventually you'd find a piece of property with a positive cash-flow, but the length of time you'd have to spend to sift through enough properties to find that "diamond in the rough" would make the effort questionable.Additionally, the very high land cost under those properties carries a high level of exposure and risk for any investor since the first thing to drop when the housing market turns and cycles down are land values.I hope to meet you one of these days Ben. :-)Continued success!

Up your volume.4000 Mailers will net me one deal on average.

If you can't carry the water, consider a partner who is familiar with your industry and make sure you can buy them out in the future.

It keeps me excited about this industry and the information is beyond excellent.

Does anyone know any real estate investment mentors for someone new to the industry.

Right now the average time to get the Writ of eviction then get the sheriff to enforce runs 7-9 months.

Asked another way, if they get 2 BPO's and the average is $95,000 that may or may not mean the bank would accept $90,000.
