And all the places I talked to don't seem to offer lines of credit.

I love talking shop so feel free to hit me up anytime.Good luck! 

Especially in a market like mine, we've been in majority of the listings and the sold comps, or if not, we've likely talked with an agent/buyer/inspector/etc who has and has given us the bullet points.

For example, talked to someone the other day and find out about a cabinet supplier I didn't know of that should save us quite a bit without sacrificing quality at all.

You will need to talk to your bank.  

Interesting that you talk against flips and your profile says you primarily flip.... 

You can not only google it, but you can find some really good videos on youtube that specifically talk about asset protection. 

I am trying to buy a duplex and I have talked to the owner (built rapport) and got info from the city tax records, county clerk and google earth street views of the property plus neighbor properties.  

The people you talk to today are going to be your sales in a year or two.

@Eddie Salisbury@Russell BrazilEddie, please see my comments above you.I really hope everyone who is accusing me of being shady would just understand that I'm anticipating conflicts of interest and I want to talk to Brokers before joining a Brokerage to see how best to handle a situation can possible happen.I AM NOT A SALESPERSON YET.
