Looking for Multi-Family brokers...

Hello again BP,

I am looking for some seasoned Multi Family broker/agents to assist in locating me some solid investment properties.

I have about 35k working capital, and was preferring to either

A) Purchase 25% down multi-family properties in Las Vegas or other high ROI areas.

B) Purchase 3.5% FHA Southern California property and live in one and rent the other

Let me know if you guys could recommend anyone!

Thanks again,

J.C. Smith

Thanks for the mention Phil!

With 35k to put down lets just exclude closing costs non-ooc are going to be 25% down you can buy $140,000k 4-plex. In Vegas you are not going to get something that is going to be in a good neighborhood that most property managers are going to want to deal with.

Mine that I had listed for 145 had 2 break-in last month where they took all of my appliances! Argh!

Now on the other hand 3.5% down on a 4plex in So Cal in a good area can be great. Here's just an example in San Fran 2bedrooms rent for 2100/mo! x4 units x 12 months 108,000. The 50% rule doesn't apply so you are going to have a higher cash flow because you aren't going to be spending 4200/mo in expenses!

35,000 x 20 (5% down) means if you could find something with rents between 1,600 and 2,000/rent you could be very happy with a 700k purchase price.
