    How I started in mobile home notes

    HOT! 
    Here in Texas it is best to use a licensed mortgage broker to close, which keeps you in compliance with the SAFE Act. I myself am just getting into my first MH deals, so will make a new post soon with details.

    What business would you start if you had a ranch?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I know that you have written off crops, but I will throw one out that maybe you have not considered. I was talking to a friend just a few weeks ago who owns farmland in the panhandle, and he said they're converting all of their substantial acreage to hemp when the licenses become available next...

    Checking in here to see if the DFW contingent is interested in getting together soon. Happy to help coordinate or assist. Please reply if you could meet over the next few weeks (before Labor Day) on a weekend.

    Dallas....are you in here?!

    MEETUPS 
    Unfortunately I will be out of town this coming Sunday. I hate to miss it, but I look forward to the next one. Are most of the DFW people closer to Dallas or Ft. Worth? I am flexible during the week too, for a late afternoon or early evening happy hour, or even breakfast or lunch....

    $250K In Non-Mortgage Debt At 48 & Reversing The Stupidity Of A Few Decades

    EXECUTION 
    This is great advice and I appreciate it. I like the idea of continuing on with what is already working, and expanding it into something bigger. I had never thought of it quite like that, but clearly there is a lot of info here on the Forum on digital marketing - info I have only scratched the...

    $250K In Non-Mortgage Debt At 48 & Reversing The Stupidity Of A Few Decades

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the reply and the suggestion! I am not sure if you are referring to residential or commercial here, but all of my experience and focus has always been commercial. Retail tenants in particular tend to be either nationals or franchise concepts, or start-up/mom and pops. Not sure how...

    $250K In Non-Mortgage Debt At 48 & Reversing The Stupidity Of A Few Decades

    EXECUTION 
    As a newbie on this forum, I have been excited, humbled and amazed at the quality of people who have taken the time to add value and give out such learned advice. As my eyes have been opened to the Fastlane a month ago, I have embarked on a course that will take me from debt-laden Sidewalker to...

    I am new to the Forum and would definitely meetup anytime in the DFW area with like-minded TMF people! As luck would have it, when you had your last meetup in May, I was on a long road trip listening to TMF for the first time. Eye-opening to say the least!

    Commercial RE Broker-Thanks

    INTRO 
    Hi itsemdub, Just joined the Forum and discovered TMF a few weeks ago, and came across this post. I too am a commercial real estate broker (since 2002) and can relate to much of what you describe in your post. How are things going for you? Have you pulled the trigger on any properties? Would...

    How to build a $12billion Private Real Estate Investment firm from scratch?

    REAL ESTATE 
    To answer your question above, a syndicator makes money a couple of different ways. One, by taking an equity piece for the value he or she brings to the table. It is negotiable and varies from deal to deal, but typically you might see a sponsor take anywhere from 10-30% of the whole deal, or...

    How to build a $12billion Private Real Estate Investment firm from scratch?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Ashkenazy is a well-known firm in retail real estate, and apparently in office and hotels as well. I have encountered them in retail leasing and they are one successful firm among hundreds of similar firms nationwide. When I say similar, I mean family-owned real estate firms that typically...

    GOING DEEP

    INTRO 
    As I re-read my post, it occurred to me that maybe the short-story format is a little too obscure. So here is a little more color on me and my journey that may be a little easier to understand: I spent 10 years in the family restaurant business out of college, and considered myself an...

    Retail Strip Center Sold

    As an active participant in the retail commercial real estate industry, I agree that retailer failures are a cause for concern. However, retail is not going away, it is just changing. Much has been written about the "Amazon Effect" and the impact of Walmart on retailers of all sizes. However...

    GOING DEEP

    INTRO 
    Motocoyote stood and stared out at the Grand Canyon. He was almost alone on the ledge, save for a few foreign tourists with their selfie sticks that he could make out through the trees. They jabbered and shrieked and laughed, destroying the solace. But Moto was in his own world, lost in thought...
