Brand new investor. I am a bar manager at a local bar and have been there for 4 years. I just recently finished Dean's books (Profit from real estate right now, and real estate millionaire) I have always had a deep interest in real estate and my boss is an investor himself. I already have a broker on my team along with an appraiser, and title agent. However, because of my job I am on stated income with makes it very hard, right now, to get a traditional loan. I have found a condo in a great area with a motivated seller. She is not using a Realtor and seems very motivated to sell. I want to acquire this property and rent it out. This area is very high in renters for the the Medical School down the street. I feel this is a great first deal. Since reading the book and coming up with creative financing I'm still not 100% sure what I'm doing which is understandably common with first timers. Any suggestions are welcomed and I hope to return back with the story of how i acquired that property. Thank you again.
