Looks like this thread keeps growing and growing, lets see if we can get this thread to ten pages LOL.

We have been together now for 2 years & are finally getting on our feet after both divorces & her robbing him blind - LOLNow my question - LOLWe would like to get back into REI - we are working on Re-financing now and talking to a relative for investing & may have access to between 10,000 - 20,000 for investing.

Scott,A related discussion took place on this subject.

Keeping related activities together.

A relative or attorney.

The main reason I came to Michigan was because I have relatives that are based here and I can stay with them until I am set up.I had no idea how bad the Michigan market was before I arrived.Now I am thinking that it is not the best market to be starting with no cash to invest.I have all the time in the world to search for deals and I am ideally looking for a partner with the money, who I can do the searching for.If anyone is looking to invest in Michigan.

I will be more than happy to share.Hey I feel as if I have something to contribute to the BP community, even if it's not RE related.

There was no one database for the whole of the US.I am not sure if the present Realtor site is a web browser interface to the local boards or if the local boards are uploading their data back to a central database.

When you run your first full page advertisement in the Sunday newspaper at a cost of 11,000, your heart will lose a couple beats I am sure.

My realtor keeps encouraging me to get a home warranty through American Home Shield, but their reviews on the web are not impressive.
