I am highly highly intrigued on getting involved with bigger pockets and in the real estate community.

I want to build an empire quickly which involves buying properties that are larger and nicer and bring in good cash flow right away.

I strongly advise you consider the risks before getting involved. 

Are there any  Creative Real Estate  strategies that I am prohibited from doing as a broker  and  what type of disclosures to sellers  would I have to make even if I am a party in the transaction?

I was informed by a neighbor that as recently as a couple years ago, the one house was basically a brothel, it's been cleaned up once the neighbors got the police involved but I imagine the tenants aren't the best.   

I still do my due diligence up front and am involved in the big decisions, but I'm not a part of the day-to-day operations. 

I plan to use a PM and would prefer less involvement but don’t mind a having a defined set of renovations.

As far as my goals are concerned, I have a few thoughts in mind: 1) I would like to get in touch with a few wholesalers in the area so that I can more quickly and efficiently acquire properties to continue my flipping business,2) I would like to acquire multi family residences as investments to hold and rent,3) I would like to learn more about financing options or best avenues to obtain capital as I do not have a large amount of cash sitting to be used for my business,4) I am interested in syndication deals,5) I would like to become more involved with the local real estate groups,6) Any advice of best ways to use BiggerPockets is always appreciated.Looking forward to hearing your responses and chatting.

One problem that banks have with swaps with small time investors is counter-party risk.

This particular building inspector is a third party inspector hired by the township so I am thinking of reaching out to the head engineer of the township with my concern.
