Cold calling, looking up new properties on the internet and
sieving through public records are great ways to start your research. Word of
mouth is one the best ways to begin your research before you purchase a new

Also in regard to researching the property that you want to
buy, you also want to make sure that you check the insurance history of the
home. Anything you can dig up is great. Previous owners and major repairs are

Your personal records are also something you need to look at
when in the commercial real estate
business
If you want to get into the commercial real estate business one thing that you want to make
sure that you get in order is your credit score. Having a low credit scot or a
credit report with red flags can be devastating when you are trying to buy a
new property. If your credit is a little shaky there are some lenders that are
willing to help you depending on the nature of your investment. On the other
hand, you could try going to a hard money lender if you need a quick loan. Most
of the time hard money lenders do not worry about the type of credit you have as
long as you have adequate collateral.
