    Happy 2012: I'm back!

    Hello my Fastlane Brothas (and sistas); I’m back! I guess I was never really “gone-gone” in the first place, but I haven’t been around much and it is because I was hard at work making many good things occur. Over the past two years, a lot has changed. When I was 19, I posted about my first...

    James.S: Millionaire by 30

    HOT! 
    Thanks for that Kenric. Maybe if jrws had heeded my advice back in March in this very thread, he would be posting about a small first milestone he had accomplished by now. Instead, not only has jrws failed to make any progress on his first "weakly-planned dollar value goal", but he is now...

    James.S: Millionaire by 30

    HOT! 
    The "shotgun blast" approach you are taking can lead to you putting way too many irons in the fire and ultimately lead you to end up with nothing. I would suggest you stop chasing a certain dollar value until you have an opportunity for a running business. The difference between an idea and an...

    19 Years old: First RE Deal done

    REAL ESTATE 
    Thanks for asking Excalibur. I had an amazing idea about how I could reduce my risk and streamline this operation. I had a large buyers list built up because there is a huge demand for seller financing in my area since the banks and now the credit unions both no longer lend on mobile homes. The...

    Great work MJ. Looks really good, but like Russ said I too am definitely in a foreign country right now without a dictionary. I will have to learn the language on my own! Of course, can't wait to see the speed limits and tags back up. Funny the first time I checked out the forum re-work I am on...

    Guidelines in commercial REI

    REAL ESTATE 
    Anyone can dream of having $35,000,000 in assets and a healthy cash flow, but those are your net worth goals...not your PLAN to achieve them. Right now the credit markets are still insanely tight. And chances are unless you have major collateral or a successful history with a local bank, you...

    20yrs Old: Time for Multi-Unit

    REAL ESTATE 
    The maintenance calculation would be spread monthly in valuation, but say for instance...gutters, which the place needs; they would be around $1000. That's $100 a month for the first ten months. Then a stove goes...or something else. Not saying that things would keep breaking, but even...

    20yrs Old: Time for Multi-Unit

    REAL ESTATE 
    Well, I know no one here had anything to add into property analysis, but I figured I'd give you an update anyways. I decided not to get this property after talking with two very intelligent friends of mine. It's easy to get excited, and even more excited upon running numbers and seeing...

    David, I have not yet gotten my license and I am still debating. I may just keep investing and go that route. How has everything been for you? Are you back in the states yet? -G. Alexander

    I come around the Fastlane more after I take action to share my experiences with you guys so you can learn from it, or help me if I am stuck. As it has been said, many are busy trying to keep up with the economic situation. I myself haven't been posting as much because I have been working hard...

    Free Mobile Home - What Will it Cost You?

    REAL ESTATE 
    There are many ways to get creative with mobile homes. You can find free siding at MH dealers and MH movers who have extra laying around. MH dealers often get trade ins on new mobile homes and place the trade on the "0" books, because the home is not worth selling for the dealership. You can...

    Lonnie deal then no first time home buyer status?

    REAL ESTATE 
    No Runum, you make a good point. It does not include lease/rent to own. Sid, if you do not mind being a "Land Lord" then you can still definitely do the deal with a lease to own option. You will just have to have insurance in your name the whole time, pay the property taxes and help your...

    19 Years old: First RE Deal done

    REAL ESTATE 
    If you have any friends with a little cash lying around, go find yourself a buyer first and see how much they have to put down. If you can find a buyer with a $1000 to put down and you ask your friend for a $1000 for the deal you can have your cash easily. Just tell your friend you will pay him...

    This is where the creativity in financing will need to come into play. I am going to be talking to smaller banks and presenting them with a full business plan on a property with a good amount of instant equity, if I put together a convincing enough business plan then hopefully I can get the...
