I am hoping for some help on what my financial picture could look like.

I don't just look at credit as leverage, I look at complete financial wellness.

First, you'll need a financial calculator.

I'm a beginning investor and i see the power of using private funds but i just don't know the proper and legal way of doing this.now i know about talking to people you know, other investors, and marketing to other high net worth individuals, which all of this i would consider the first step in the process.the second step i'm guessing some will say is working out the agreement/financial details with the your private lenders once they say they want to invest (which i plan on doing all this in step one, letting them know they're either going to invest as a lender or has a partner and this is what they'll get in either scenario)but my questions are:1. when do i have to worry about the SEC?

Correction: FDIChttp://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/silverstate.html On September 5, 2008, Silver State Bank, Henderson, NV was closed by the Nevada Financial Institutions Division and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was named Receiver.

I was thinking of taking out a Home equity loan to purchase a home, but after reading some posts in here wonder if it is best (financially in the long run) to pay off the house (maybe in 2.5 years), before buying.

â€Question #3: “Since the amount of work involved doesn’t really differ according to the value of the house, financially, it seems like the percentage commission would make higher prices more favorable from a buyer’s agent’s perspective.

On a SFR, you would typically get a pro-approval based on your personal financial situation.

There is no financial accountability.

The following is what I found.Seq#Sale DateSale PriceSale Type1 06/01/1979 (obsolete sales codes) 2 08/23/1991 $03 12/11/1995 $315,000 Good sale; verified 4 08/20/1996 $537,000 Good sale; verified 5 09/26/2002 $0 6 10/28/2002 $07 12/15/2003 $280,000 REO Sale-Gvmt/Financial Inst 8 09/13/2005 $09 09/15/2005 $0 Foreclosure 10 11/10/2005 $011 11/01/2006 $0 Good sale; verified 12 11/14/2006 $013 01/29/2007 $1,047,000 REO Sale-Gvmt/Financial Inst It seems that this unfortunate properties has been foreclosed twice.
