@Richard Regalado welcome to BP community. Always nice to see some Southern CA representation!

@Isaac Guzman  Here is a good article with the top 21 RE Books from BP. You could start out with Rich Dad Poor Dad or The Millionaire Real Estate Investor by Gary Keller.

Pretty new to this site, but I have been involved investing in real estate and finance industry since 2002.

Isaac Guzman , Welcome to BP Community. Always nice to see fellow San Diegans join!

Welcome fellow San Diegan! We should connect. I am a broker involved with distressed asset acquisitions and private lending. Let's meet up. I would like to learn more about your biz and experience.

James, Thanks for sharing. It is always nice to get good feedback from BP crew about speakers and seminars.

Jay, welcome to BP from a local San Diegan! I have been in the real estate and finance industry for over 12 years. Check out my profile. My office is in Sorrento Valley and you are more than welcome to schedule a time to chat more about the business. I would be happy to help out any way I can. We are looking for interns that may want to help in our distressed asset acquisitions and possibly assistance with our private lending business.

In CA, AZ, NV, we would lend up to 80% of Acquisition and 65% of ARV and up to 100% of rehab. In this case a private money lender could lend up to 70% of acquisition and then do an escrow hold back for the repairs that would be paid upon completion as it would add value to property and still be under 65% of After Repair Value. You should reach out to a local private lender and see if they could accommodate this structure.

Wendell De Guzman I liked your script. It creates some engagement and will provide info you can definitely use in your analysis. It is also a numbers game, so might as well cut to the chase to see if there is a potential deal.
