@George A.

@Jeremy Tillotson

Thanks for reaching out fellow Hoosiers! I sent you a colleague request...hope we can help one another!

I'll give it a go @Brandon Turner! I believe you mentioned on a podcast to try the wholesale calculator, just leaving the fee at zero to evaluate deals...

@Mark Nolan

I have considered going Pro to take advantage of the calculators to help analyze deals more quickly. Thanks for replying!

@Meghan Grey...welcome to BP! I'm a newbie as well, and have been educating myself through the podcasts and free material. You will want to check out Podcast 11(I believe) which is packed with info for those new to REI. @Brandon Turner is big on creative financing, which might steer you in the right direction. Good luck!

@Cheri Schaffer...welcome! I'm a newbie myself to REI, but I've been listening to podcasts and watched Brandon Turner's last webinar, so I have an idea that might work. Given your credit situation, it would be difficult to obtain conventional lending...Brandon is a big advocate for creative financing, so definitely check out the podcasts. It might be possible to finance a duplex through private lending or a hard money loan. Although the terms would be harsh, it would allow you to rent out one side, while you live in the other, having your tenant pay the mortgage while you work to earn cash for the next property and repair your credit. It is a stretch, but a creative financing solution could get you on the right track.

Thanks for the tip @Mark Nolan! What convinced you to go Pro?

Care to share how you got started @Matt Hanson? I see you are in Indiana...do you invest locally?

Thanks for the warm welcome @Steve Vaughan!

Thank you for the info @Paul Timmins. Where can I locate details for REIA meetings?
