My advice would be to try and team up with other investors to diversify your risk and gain experience through the partnership.

I decided to think smart and big and see what opportunities I could gain from getting into the investment business.

I'm hoping that bigger pockets may help me with my real estate ventures as well as my internship for school by meeting new people and gaining insight from them.

A Master Lease is not a loan (as long as the master lease is not long term with a declining balance, thus a disguised lease), the net income to your IRA is not subject to debt financed income tax.NegativesTaxes: When you exercise your option to buy and simultaneously flip the building, you haven’t been in title long enough to qualify for a long-term capital gains tax treatment. 

I flip full time in Denver, and have never sold a property for more than $300k ARV, my initial thought is you might be swinging a little over your weight class.  500-700k is a whole different world and a ton of experience and detail above the entry level houses in/around Denver.  

In theory, they should gain full divesture within 6 months of request to divest.Like most funds, the investors will invest into an LLC that will be managed by another entity.Questions:What body of regulation would this fall under?

Right now I am enjoying absorbing all the info here on BP.It seems like I can gain the most ground financially with more units, perhaps a quad is the best choice if I can find a good deal.

In my opinion, having a local joint venture partner is worth its weight in gold.

We just sold the house last year and was able to gain some profit.

As an agent, I do not cold call.... there are many other ways to gain business.
