I have seen Carlos post "ghost" craigslist adds about an apartment he had for sale. When I inquired about one apartment he sent me a different one. When I asked about the one I was actually inquiring about he never responded. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Make sure you keep some type of a reserve when buying rental properties.

Is that $68,000 per unit or purchase price of $68,000? In my experience it is difficult to get a lender to loan less than about $70,000. It is not worth their time because the fees are too low. Therefore you would have to buy a property that is worth about $93,000 with 25% down. 

Since you are looking at the more than 4 units you will have to go with a commercial loan and they will typically look at the income the property will be receiving. Typically they want to see over about a 1.25 debt coverage ratio.

I have not built a house on a vacant property before, so I am looking for someone with experience that would be interested in partnering with someone that knows what to do.

Are you seeking conventional financing, or commercial financing? If it's conventional financing, the dog-and-pony show is likely unnecessary. In fact, you should be interviewing them in that case, to make sure you understand their lending criteria and to ensure that they have a program they can plug you into. If you are looking at commercial loans, then carry on....

 Thanks Dan. Yes it is commercial funding.

Hi All - I am going to meet with a couple local banks and credit unions next week. I am in the process of creating a package to give them so I can look as professional as possible. My partner and I are looking to refinance a couple properties and find a good lender we can continually use to do the BRRRR strategy with. Currently my package includes the partners resumes, company and personal schedule of real estate, company and personal tax returns for past three years. I was thinking about giving a couple examples of what we do, how much we have bought them for, rehab costs, appraised value at refinance, and rent amounts to give the lender an idea of what we do, should I include this? Is there anything else I should include?

Thanks everyone. I just bought a Simplisafe alarm, I think that will do the trick.
