I'm really looking for a mentor, preferably someone not to far from me that can show me hands on.

Personal preferences, etc.?

I look forward to interacting with the Community. 

I personally prefer to rehab my properties before I rent, that way I collect more rent and I am able to refinance for more.

Your own appetite for risk will vary.Would I prefer a 20 or 30 year fixed loan? 

I have always wanted to be invest in real estate but it seemed to me to risky and needed a lot of capital.1- My first question: is it preferable to wholesale in the US under my own name or under my sole proprietorship (which i think just comes down to the same)?

I'm an accountant by profession and my father is a retired carpenter/contractor so I'm hoping to learn as much as I can from him to save money on renovations while I'm blessed to still have him here with me.I look forward to interacting with everyone on BP Forums.  

For more networking opportunities, be sure to check out the Network tab above along with commenting on posts, being responsive, and interacting with members!

Also, I'm a hands-off investor, so I find property managers and strictly stick to managing the managers.My goal is to hand off my properties to my kids at some point, preferably through seller financing so that they can get a good deal, I can quit running "the business" to have truly passive income streams, and they can have "passive" income to free up their own lifestyle options.That makes it a win-win in my book.

I look forward to interacting with and learning from you all!
