I'm a R.E.I in the heart of Bristol if you would like to book a meeting with me them just get in touch and we can arrange it.

I love my job but Real Estate Investing has caught my eye and my addictive personality has sucked me in further and I am actively pursuing a buy and hold portfolio with aggressive goals.I have arranged my capital and I am starting to research areas to invest in, SoCal is my preference, but if there are no buy and hold deals to be structured then I will cast my gaze further a field. 

Legal liability issues aside, which I know the merits of LLCs, GL policies, liability, etc. have been debated in detail, does this arrangement give any additional flexibility to tap the conventional lending markets and not be limited to the commercial lending markets? 

If you can get the house  livable you can move in with your dog and get the one, other great apartment renovated and have someone move in there.About the boiler maybe you can get the boiler on a Home Depot credit card and work out a payment arrangement with a plumber.  

I would make sure that maybe 150% of the money I will calculate I need is available from the same money partner and make that a part of the arrangement. 

-Obviously, many investors would probably LOVE for you to do a profit sharing arrangement where if you don't get it done for the right amount of money, or if the quality of the work isn't up to par and in the end it doesn't make much profit, you eat that as well.

He is arranging one in NYC you might seek out his post on key words.

I'm not a tax expert and that is not a usual arrangement but there is nothing wrong with making a note like that.I've certainly had balloon notes that were made in the previous tax period and were paid in the following period and interest income was then due as and when paid. :)

After he retired from the law firm, he still kept all of his rentals and when he passed, they went to his family, who have continues to rent them and continue their ownership legacy.Some people get into real estate to provide for their retirement, so their goal is to keep the real estate not to jettison it.They might turn the management over to somebody else, but since the properties are often debt free there is still a lot of cash generated and with very little or no work, a perfect arrangement for retirement.And then there are the people addicted to real estate, who continue buying real estate longer after there is a need to do that.And from my personal observation more people quit real estate long before they retire.

Look up "private lending arrangements" I'm betting you'll find examples.
