I’m just at the beginning and was wondering if anyone would be able to point me in the right direction to resource material that goes in depth on Apartment financing. Material that highlights everything you need to know,different strategies, creative ways to structure it and how it affects the deal.

Thank you for your feedback.

@Alex Olson Thank you for the advice, much appreciated. Any tips on how to find a stellar buyer agent?

No mentors as of yet and I do feel like that is a component that I’m missing. Being around and connecting with those who are 3 steps ahead so I can learn first hand or provide some sweat equity value. Due to COVID, that has been alittle difficult but you’re a hundred percent right

HI, 

I own one property in South Florida, have a decent income (120k a year) plus do a few real estate transactions on the side (have a license and MLS access down here) and invest in a few flip projects a year that return around 11-14%

Looking to start my rental empire, I was looking into Kansas City and using a property management company like Usreeb or making the 90min drive to Orlando to purchase a property as the homes in South Florida are just way to highly priced for a good return. Multifamily homes or SFH with no HOA are what I am looking for in the $250k and under bracket

All the best fellow investors

A little about me...I'm brand new to real estate investing and looking for my first property. I am looking for either a single family or multi family property to buy-and-hold while using the BRRRR method. I am located in Saint Louis, Missouri and actively looking for a real estate agent.

The issue I am running into is any time I connect with a realtor they want me to sign exclusively with them. While I appreciate the work they are putting in I aim to have multiple realtors who all send properties for me to analyze on a regular basis. Now if I end up purchasing a property I will absolutely use the agent that sent me that deal in return for there work. 

Ultimately my question is how do I go about saying this to a realtor without being rude. I don’t want the realtor to feel like I'm wasting there time, but I also understand on their end how they could rather do this with someone who they have a trusted relationship. 

Any insight on this is much appreciated and I thank you in advance. 

Hi @Dennis King I'm a new investor. I found a great potential flip in KC but am looking for a few GC recommendations to send out to bid the project. Did you ever find any good GC's who you liked working with? Thanks,

Would you say it’s due to needing to be close to the property and getting that first year of landlord experience?

My main problem is anything within my price point may not be the best situation for me to house hack. The price point is not as high as California out here in AZ which is why I left but I’m still finding difficulty in pull the trigger on that first deal

I have been looking at properties in the west side and south side of Chicago that look very promising as a rental property. After talking to some real state agents about renting in the area they have warned me about placing money aside for evictions and legal fees. I will build a portfolio of rentals in Chicago. I am curious to know what other states that I can invest in that are more landlord friendly.
