Is it true that i need financing for Assignment of Contracts, as well as checking my credit? Because several Real Estate agents have told me this. I get worried because I am so determined and so far I have business cards, a website and my 1-800 recorded message. I've went so far to get discouraged. Anny comments?
Financing and Credit
Why CRE Lenders Don’t Care About Your Credit
June 5th, 2009 | posted by sistreatWhy CRE Lenders Don’t Care About Your Credit
by Karen Hanover
In commercial real estate (CRE) the property qualifies for the loan and not the investor(s). The lender is primarily concerned with whether the property can produce enough income to allow the borrower to make the mortgage payment.
If an investor buys a single family residence to live in, the property will generate no income. Therefore the lender qualifies the borrower with regard to the ability to make the payments.
Credit Cards, how much is to much?
June 5th, 2009 | posted by thebossspringst...I'm 18 and just beginning to build my credit. I opened a secured cc with Bank of America for $300, I spend $75 a month on that one and always pay on time. I was sent another mastercard with a credit line of $500 and I am starting to charge $125 a month on that one. I got another cc offer from Discover for a cc. Soo, how much is to much? How many credit cards should I have, what is enough to build credit, is more better? If so then when do I stop?

And we are Back to 10
May 29th, 2009 | posted by ddowdFannie Mae, a major investor in mortgages whose guidelines are widely followed, has increased the number of financed properties it allows investors to carry, from four to 10.
The change took effect in March, ending the four-property limit imposed in September.
This report was given in "Florida Today" newspaper May 24th.
This is great for investors. You can now own more than 10 properties on most conventional mortgages. This will open up HUGE opportunities for investors.
Financing a property with other people's money
May 29th, 2009 | posted by Indiana-JoeA friend of mine that recently started in real estate has found some good buy and hold real estate deals. He inquired to me that he has difficulty in convincing family, friends and professional busienss people he knows about investing in his real estate. He stated he gets frustrated because some people have offered to finance the deal but want him to do all the work and they want at least a 50% equity interest in the property. Other potential financers that have their money in a savings account earning 1% interest view his deals as too risky.
