There was some information that didn’t translate well.

Would that translate to a "signed lease agreement" and exchange of keys?

Quote from @Perry Stanfield: Thank you KenGrandkids, along with my wife's extreme affinity to our home, translate to us staying in the Washington area.   

I can't imagine what you feel about Hard Money Lenders...and you must not be worried about positive cash flow either; in today's market, a 15-year amort will almost certainly translate into negative cash flow.I know you're negotiating a sale now, but is this the kind of fourplex that you'd be interested in: 7218 Meade St, Pittsburgh, PA 15208?

ROI is great and think that translates in to equity in the same way that a commercial property would.

Stuff like "I underwrote 10% for capex" which is $700/yr on a $70k property, or "cash on cash is 22%" which translates to barely $100/month.

North Florida and Phoenix are both unique markets, so that experience will translate really well as you get settled into the Midwest.It’s always exciting and a little overwhelming stepping into a new market, but connecting with local investors and just absorbing how people are buying, holding, and flipping here will give you a fast head start.

Coming from an IT background actually gives you a huge advantage since you already think in systems and processes, which translates really well into real estate investing.I’d recommend starting with a mix of learning and networking.
