Thanks Nathan, I didn't know purchasing multifamily property was a marathon. However, I do remember grandmother saying good things take time.

Wishing you continued success.

Lucas, opportunities to purchase in Charlotte and submarket are not good. Therefore, I have tried to look at different types of properties in order to increase my opportunity to purchase.  I like your thoughts of driving for dollars and tax assessor database, I will add them to my means of property searching.

Thanks for sharing,

Mr. Evan Polanski, all you stated I'm sure is sound advice.  And I am most appreciative to hear it.  I will try to do all that and beyond.  However, for a few reasons time is not on my side, so I do need to be a bit enterprising.

Thanks for sharing,

Hello Colton, thanks for your response. Networking sounds like a good idea. I'm located in Charlotte and hopeful there are a few 

investor groups here. Your thoughts and experience are value. Thanks for sharing.

I am new member from North Carolina excited about the BiggerPockets world of real estate. I've been diligent in study mastering the tip of the iceberg, podcast assisted. Therefore, not being able to wait any longer (two months) I went into search mode.  Duplex, triplex, quadraplex all the way up to twenty-five units.  Living on the computer I utilized all the big guys, Crexi. Loopnet, Zillow, Realtor.com, etc. I sent out LOIs, text messages, and cell calls. Well, was I in for a shock? Responses were, under contract, I'll send you the numbers, and half of these would never cash flow, or a single family made out to be whatever or they simply would not respond at all. 

I believe my perseverance is good, but I don't want to take a year to buy a property.  I need HELP, PLEASE, your knowledge is golden, will you share, point all of us newbies in the right direction. Wishing you the best of success in all of your endeavors. Thank you.

 God Bless you,
