In Abu Dhabi, state-backed Mubadala Development Co. agreed to buy 7.5 percent of Washington-based buyout firm Carlyle Group.

I am a commercial property manager for a developer, recently started diving into personal real estate investing here.

Wholesaling doesn't need the money and credit rehabbing or developing requires, but you can't do it for $0.1.

I think prices will eventually increase but I am not sure if they will reach the levels that they were prior to the foreclosure crisis.

I'm involved with a company called [REMOVED] as a web developer/marketing strategist.

.* I've been reading the past posts in the forum* I'm developing a company name so that I can have business cards and a website ready for my first REI Club meeting.

My only local option is to invest in pre-sale deposits, or other developments.

Take out a small secured loan or credit card from your local bank.Pay it back on-time / quickly.Take out a larger secured loan/credit card from your local bank.Pay it back on-time / quickly.If your business is an LLC or Corp you need to develop the businesses relationship with lenders and other businesses.

Eventually they are going to start recognizing you and you will be able to call up "Bob" directly even though the sale is 3 days away.

Should I just take that 31000 and put it towards my principle so that I only have to pay the bank back $15000, and eventually be debt free so I can take the money I pay on mortgage every month and invest it?
