Okay, I should have posted on this new member forum first. So here I go. My name is Ralph and I am located in Missoula, MT.

I am interested in real estate because I am looking for ways to overcome: living from paycheck to paycheck, having savings that I always end up withdrawing from, etc.

I am looking for mentor's, partner's, people who will help me with advice on all aspects of real estate, networking with professionals to achieve financial security and more.

Some things that I would like to know more about are: ways to possibly network with experienced investors, etc., who would be willing to help me as their protege' on real estate deals, ways to buy inexpensive plots of land (owner financed) to either get a wrap-around mortgage on or sell at a higher to pay off and profit from the difference, ways to possibly acquire a turn-key rental that I can make monthly cash flow from while also paying any loans I used to get the property (with my bad credit, no money, etc.).

I look forward to becoming a colleague of yours.

Thanks for all the replies! I am glad I found this website and glad it was created.

The answer is "maybe". As others have said, not enough info. I'll be in Missoula next month for a week as part of 7 week summer "cool off" trip. You want me to look at it? I'm pretty good at this stuff. Rich
p.s. I have a son and his family there.

I would appreciate that Rich. Just to let you and everyone else know I not in a financial situation where I could even purchase real estate at this time. I would consider myself "the working poor". But that's why I joined to BP, to possibly find a mentor/help/ways to possibly turn my life around/become financially secure. Any help/tips/advice you can offer while in Missoula (or through BP, etc.) Is gladly appreciated.

I am not sure. Just saw the ad and was wondering if it is something that money could be made from if there is an free lot.

Thanks for the reply Greg.

I saw an ad for a new 3/2, 1 car garage in the local newspaper on Sunday, June 17th. The headline said "Ask about free lot". It also said "Build EXTRA home or condo".

Would this be a good investment since it includes a free lot, if the price was right?
