As you get your trades lined up and all your other inputs and learn where to take the fat out, move up to larger projects. 

So if you fat finger something you get to play detective on where you went wrong. 

Set the rent high enough you're happy if someone pays you big fat rent.As an agent that works a fair number of leases I also don't like the alternative showing system. 

Once you get your personal budget rock solid and have cut all of the fat you don't need you will be able to save more for your first eventual investment purchase.

There was the no-fat fad, don't eat any fat, none, 0, and that is the "magic trick". 

Conventional is bad enough when it comes to red tape and regulations, and now youre adding the literal federal government into a construction project with a 203k.Most mortgage lenders push FHA because they come with big fat margins for the lender.

My name is Harrison, I am a farmer from New Zealand looking to start a syndication purchasing a mid to large scale dairy farm in New Zealand and was hoping for some help on my proposed structure of the deal to appeal to investors but also if you think something this unique would catch the eye of potential investors. dairy farms are paid by the amount of milk fats in the milk also called milk solids (MS)The current price per kg of milk solids is $9.70-$10.30 NZD but with global demand rising this price is predicted to continue up to all-time highs which presents a perfect time to invest into the industry. the current farm I am looking at would be an annual COC return of 8.62% for the investors at 85/15 with hopes of this rising through reducing expenses and milk prices rising, my thoughts around structure would be 1% acquisition fee, 85/15 profit split and unsure on what a typical disposition fee should be in this instance as I want to appeal to investors.Would love any help on the structure, who might be best to pitch to or if you have any interest in this or know of anyone who might, I'm more than happy to answer any questions :)Regards,Harrison Are you seeking investors from New Zealand or from the US?

I distinctly remember some moron writing about how he worked with an agent and lender for months to get under contract, then tried to shop them both last minute after all the work was done to save a couple hundred bucks on fees - to "trim the fat" in his words.

I've shown a few to buyers that bordered the cemetery and they were a big fat NO.I guess all depends on where it is too, but in most of my markets we have huge international communities and they seem to care even more. 

He is living fat and happy just off of those 80 weeks he barters.And if you think PMs are dishonest, you ought to see some of the homeowner clients I've come across!
