New To Investing In Southeastern Massachusetts

Hi guys

I live in Southeastern MA and have been looking into REI for the past year. I even went through a mentoring course. Unfortunatly I do not feel that I have the knowledge to what I need to do and I would like to try birddogging to learn the business. I have a couple of questions...

1. Who sets the fee the investor or the birddog?
2. Is there a contract that should be signed between the investor and birddog (specific wording in the contract)?
3. Is it as easy as it sounds?
4. Is there anybody willing to work with a brand new birddog?

Thanks
Heidi

    If you read back posts in the bird-dog section I believe you will find the answers you seek.

    Hi Heidi,

    If you wait till you know everything you will never get started, but learning from mistakes in MA is costly.

    I have lived on the north shore the last three summers. MA is a hard place to start in REI. Local foreclosures, the occaisional ones that gets to auction, go for $230k PLUS...

    I am in FL for the winters, we got our feet wet there with $20k houses. I have been extremely actively looking this summer and still haven't found a deal within 20 miles.

    Send me an e mail or private post, I have a few other friends up here trying to get started in REI, maybe we could work together.

    Hey Heidi,

    Keep your mind open to the possibilities. I agree that you should bird dog, and doing so would not be costly at all, because you assume no risk with signing purchase and sale contracts.

    Birddog for rehabbers. Definitely go to the bird dog forum on this site, and read VORACIOUSLY through as many posts as you can, you will learn.

    Best of luck, Dave
