I've cleaned up some of the grammar, typos and sentence structure. I'll let others give thoughts as to the substance:
I. Executive Summary
Apanou Management, LLC was created by two self-driven business partners that see the potential in the current Real Estate market. We will acquire and rehabilitate distressed properties for retail sale or as long-term rental income properties. The core value of our business venture is simple: imminent action while maintaining fiscal responsibility. We hold on to the notion that it is our responsibility to bring profitable and worthwhile business opportunities to our partners and to maintain a long lasting business relationship.
Mission
We will target properties that we can acquire from motivated sellers or through foreclosures at not more than 65% of the current fair market value. [is this acquisition plus repair costs? If so, you should make that clear.]This strategy will insure that our profit is generated at the time of purchase - we will not rely on appreciation.
Acquisition Strategy
We want to aggressively acquire multifamily (4-12 units) properties in Newton,Waltham, Wellesley, Cambridge, and Brookline areas, which are predominantly family-oriented neighborhoods. We will continually evaluate our target market and make any necessary changes if and when necessary. Our key indicators are education, employment, and the percentage of owner-occupied residences.
The properties we will target are typically near move-in ready condition but we will thoroughly remodel them to meet or exceed the area standard. Our renovations will be completed within sixty days after purchase. The repair costs will range from $25,000 to $50,000 depending on the type of work required.
We will determine the fair market value after the renovations by reviewing recent comparable sales in the area with our realtor. We will evaluate numerous properties to determine which meet our investment criteria. We will creatively structure our acquisitions for maximum profit with minimal risk.
[Here is a look of the real estate investment return calculator that we used to evaluate our rental properties;
Purchase

Realtor fees upon future sale: (0-30) %

Our formula is based on the annual income of the property minus annual expenses and 1.5 month’s rent (for vacancy) divided by twelve. The key figure (monthly cash flow) is $500.00 $700.00 $1200.00 annually. Expenses would include such costs as taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance, management, advertising, reserves, leasing, repairs, and debt service.] This section doesn’t make sense to me. If this came from a spreadsheet, consider attaching a printout of the spreadsheet at the end of the plan.
The Rehab Strategy
The rehab process plays a major role in the success of our business because we have to meet the expectations of our renters and potential end purchasers. The average sales price after renovation will range from $500,000 to $900,000. We will create a minimum net profit of $50,000 within 24 months of the purchase. While we will make sure that the renovation process is done expeditiously, we will also ensure that the renovation process meets all building code requirements and is done right the first time. To attract potential renters and add to curb appeal, the exterior work is to be done first then our intention is to concentrate on the interior for all cosmetic upgrades. We will list our properties within two weeks of acquisition in order to attract qualified tenants during the renovation process.
Management Summary
Apanou Management LLC is operated under the direction of its co-founders. With future growth, services such as accounting, marketing, and all renovation-related work will be outsourced to third-parties.
[Who are the co-founders? Do you have any experience? Any education?]
II. Financial Plan
We are seeking investors with whom we can develop a long lasting business relationship while Apanou Management, LLC seeks to grow as an entity. Our investors’ interests will be secured by a first-priority lien on our properties.
Within five years, we will sell or refinance our properties to pay off liabilities and to distribute principal and profits to our investors. We will use our investors’ funds in an appropriate and responsible manner. We value and protect our partners’s interest and for such reasons, we will not acquire any negative cash flow property.
Today’s real estate opportunities are widespread, however few entrepreneurs have the will and knowledge to succeed. We at Apanou Management, LLC are heading down the right path with the proper and knowledgeable staff in place for a successful real estate venture. We are not in business for the short haul and in the next five years, our goal is to have a financially sound portfolio of 25 income producing properties. As we progress into a stable financial entity in this industry, we will reinvest 80% of the earning income toward the business to allow us to acquire more properties. In the past year, we have surrounded ourselves with experienced professionals and invested in resources to educate ourselves in order to adapt with the continuous changing Real Estate environment. Our team includes realtors, attorneys, and contractors in our target area.
Conclusion:
We will exhaust all of our evaluation tools before acquiring any property. Our goal is not to jump into a business deal for a good price but to find the best opportunity to achieve maximum results.
