What Is The Best Commercial Home Study Course?
I have been doings ingle family and want to get into Commericial Investing. What is the best or just a good course out there for home study. I have heard of Scott Scheel and David Lindall and know that Lindall is onlyfor Appt houses. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I need a jump start.
Thank you for your reply. I have not yet defined what part of Commercial I want to get into. I have looked into the CCIM courses on www.ccim.com and the courses have prerequisetes that are either unavailable or dated in such a way that I would have to wait until the end of the year.
I was thinking of buying a course to get the basics down and then figure out where I want to go from there.
The idea of a commercial Brokerage house sounds great. I will look into this. I guess I can do this by getting a commerical magazine and finding out who they are?
Yes I do have a real estate licencse ie am a REALTOR but use this mainly for my investing in single family.
Thanks Again,
Well this question got asked once before and there was some discussion. Although I notice it seems like the initial post has somehow disappeared.

Bank wants to see you assume some risk..its alot easier to walk away from something if you havent put anything down.

Just got on TCI today and found your post. Was wondering what has happened to your proposed deal. Sounds very interesting.
Actually I just closed on it today at 3:00, the appraiser took forever. Walked away from the closing with $2300 in my pocket

Actually scratch that I walked away with almost $3k at closing, found 2 more checks I was unaware of

sounds like they are pulling your chain....
No, that sounds right. $2200 for the lender is probably for the appraisal and they ask for that up front. Broker usually charges 1% of the loan amount for putting the deal together. Broker gets paid when the deal closes.
