I'm looking for an opportunity to create an additional stream of income. Currently I'm a contract (s-corp) agent for a commercial insurance agency and I also have a personal lines insurance agency that I am dissolving. I also run a small ebay store as well. I'm a 25 yr old educated person that realizes the tax laws and red tape are meant to keep the middle class in check and I'm looking for another opportunity to succeed and break the ties that bind, if you will. Currently I'm exploring the idea of purchasing single family dwellings at short sale for cosmetic rehab then selling when the time is right. With the current market conditions this concept may not be the best option but considering my youth and the lead time to profitability this could prove to be a lucrative investment.

I'm not interested in MLM's, internet scams, inventions, or the like. I am seeking advice or suggestions regarding my next venture.

There are a few questions your posting does not answer;

1. Is it your intent to work on the rehads yourself or contract a crew?
2. Do yo understand the process for short sales?
3. The permit process is sometimes misunderstood and generally overlooked by many, it is time consuming and can stop a project in its tracks. When your contractor can not work on your project he will find another to take its place. Do not rely on anyone for your permits, ever! Have you heard of this adage 'the only person you can depend on is yourself'. In the building business permits make your world move.
4. Inspections by the county or city? If you are dependent on the contractor and have no understanding of what is needed for a inspection to pass I would suggest you educate yourself within the construction process, building codes and standards of the county, city or state.
5. Can you actively have 75k to 100k invested over a period until you are able to locate a buyer for the short sale?
6. Short sales are not always what we think, so you may find traditional commercial loan/line of credit will be the method best for you.

Due diligence, this is the word I tell msot people. Research your arena of investment and make sure your knowledgeable about the process. This is where you will make or lose money. Checklist and notes is always important in the residential building business whether that be short sales, rehabs or new home business, this is a discipline that can not be ignored. Reviewing your checklist and notes is always immeasurably helpful.

Regards,

Greg

Hello,

I wanted to know if you are familiar with Day Treatment Mental Health facilities being as though you are involved with insurance companies? I ask because I currently have a Day Treatment licensed by North Carolina, and we are looking for a short term investor that can make 1.75% return on an investment. We are not an internet scam, or any of the sort. Actually we bill Medicaid Direct and they pay us at a very resonable rate to which we would be guaranteed to be able to ensure a high return. If you are interested can you email me for more information: Extended_Reach08@yahoo.com. (Andrea Hall)

Hey Everseek,

The MLM company that Don Egnor is reffering to when he says Donald Trump would invest in if he were broke, is ACN. This is the first company Trump has endorsed outside of himself ever. ACN is a tele communications company that offers services that people use everyday at a better price and higher quality service. 5 major services we offer are Phone service (Local Long Distance), Satellite TV, Internet, Wireless (Cell Phones) 6 Major Carriers, and the Video Phone which only ACN has. The next must have service, Very Excited about. As you can see this is not a Pyramid Scheme as we have service's that we are selling and not an over priced product. We also sell existing services that people use every day. You can probably agree that tele communicatoins are not going away, Homeless people have cell phones for crying out loud. This is an international company in 19 countries!! There are TWO 7min videos you must watch that tell all about the company's credebility and the compensation plan, I am begging you to just watch these videos. Only take 15 minutes of your time and I gaurantee you will know 100% about the company and weather or not this is right for you. If you are an opportunist you will just take a look at this. Even if it does not interest you, let me know, thx.

First print off this paper to watch with the second video http://www2.acninc.com/training/US/USOnePage.pdf
Go to scottedwards.acnrep.com and read the home page
Then go to The Opportunity tab and watch ACN opportunity on the left side
Then watch ACN Business opportunity Presentation and follow the paper you printed out

Main website is myacn.com

My phone number and email are on mywebsite, I am always available to reach if you have any more questions. I dont know where you live but ACN is known for support, There are regional and national trainings every week. Plus in your area there are most likely trainings by people who are members.

I don't know if you would be interested in all the benefits of running your own business that brings in profits more than you are earning now but if you really want to look into this further, you can take a look at the Web site on my profile...
