This is Brad from New Jersey & I'm excited to not only join but learn from the BiggerPockets community.My career has been in sports business but I have always envisioned my future as a real estate entrepreneur and now I'm finally taking that leap of faith!

@Serena Salvato I actually took my course online as it was easier to for me. just to be clear there are two exams usually.. the first is for the course exam which is like a final/cumulative exam. then the second one is for the NYDoS.. the actual salesperson exam for licensure.make sure you choose based on your learning habits between in class and online.

Regardless of weather or not we eventually do rent it out, I am now finally ready to get back into the REI game and pursue it regularly, and build a robust portfolio of income producing properties.  

I already own part of this complex and it gets more complicated when you include those existing units (with another set of units that I may purchase) in the final permanent financing (and potential non-bank financing at that point).  

Once they finally get possession, they have no incentive to pay their attorney to go back to court to get a judgment.

Josh and Brandon finally talked me into introducing myself to this amazing community.  

- Finally, a curveball...

I'm partnering in the sense I'm bringing the "financing" piece to the table, "John" will be doing the reno/bringing up to standard for the ALH; that is his piece he's bringing to the table.

Final date for offers is in a week.2) is a 65-35 split a bad deal on my part?

Finally, if you rent the house out, when you sell it you'll have to pay capital gains on the appreciation.
