Multi-Family and Syndication

[Miles Presha]

I'm working on multi family investing: marketing, connecting w investors, reading everything I can.  A few questions:

How does one transition from newbie multi-family investing to syndication?  Is there a huge difference and /or transition?

What do you recommend as far as unit count for beginners? Duplexes first, or start higher?

How do you work deals outside of your city?  What type of networking or communication is involved?

I've done my first mailing, reading about creative financing, and hope to evaluate smaller deals this week.  Meeting w investors next week.  Am I on track?  Advice?....
