My ideal buyer will be someone that has lived all of their working life in the US and are now seeking a retirement home (I do post on craglist in different states to attempt to attract this market) Most RE investors are buying distressed properties near vacation spots at 30% to 60% below market value...

I find my passion in people who have stepped outside the comfort zone and social norm to truly experience their dreams, and ultimately, make them realities.With any luck the mentors, professionals - doers - that I seek are here and I look forward to building relationships with as many of you as are interested.Always remember 'You succeed when you help others achieve their dreams.'

Hello, I am a new member and I am looking to meet and work with a mentor in Oklahoma City. I have been exposed to real estate deals for many years but have never been in a position to invest the time and effort. ...

In some deals, some of the gain on exit might go to paying accrued preferred return if you couldn't get the 8% to the investor from the cash flow alone.You've been given some good advice already, but I'll add that before you go seeking out the legal eagles and spending a bunch of money, you should start with an informal conversation with your clients first.

There are always big and small players there.

Hi everyone I'm new to the forums I'm in the chicago area and would like to know if anyone knows of a good reia club around the area, my question is should I try to rent out my town home and buy a sf home and make it...

There are not many lenders in my area that lend on spec builds unless you are a big player and I am not.

Unfortunately, the man who turned my eyes to this business and was beginning to guide me recently passed away, and I am at a loss for where to turn next.I am interested in finding a good REI group in the greater Washington DC area; one that requires little or no cost to attend the first few meetings/get-togethers.And even more than this, I am seeking a benevolent knowledge-giver who is willing to impart their precious experiences to me; in exchange I will do whatever I can to be half as useful to them as learning from them would be to me.

With that being said, it's not surprising to hear of someone being creative and/or seeking more security.

I am also seeking some prospective investors who might be interested in becoming partners.Thanks
