@Chris Mason so they are only interested in getting you to show them why they shouldn't fund your deal?

@Jacob Chaney thanks for clearing that up. Please do keep us updated on your progress. Good luck.

@Kevin Wiley I'd say start developing relationships with local realtors. Contact them and give them your criteria. Once they are aware of what you are looking for they can send you potential properties to your email regularly.

@Jacob Chaney Just a question. So with your contracts with the universities, are they guaranteeing you a set number of student tenants each semester with a set rate? Just trying to understand the process. Thanks.

Your particular situation is a little advanced for me (newbie), but I am glad you asked the question. I am interested in the feedback you receive.

So if i understand correctly, you are able to apply 75% of your gross rental income to your DTI? I keep hearing about being considered an "experienced landlord" in the eyes of the lender. I suppose this is where the 75% comes into play.

Thanks Antoine. How long do you typically take out the loan? Also, what interest rate do you give them?

I am new to REI and I am trying to learn more about structuring mutually beneficial partnerships. I am interested in small multi-family properties and I would like to know what a potential investor/partner would look for. I hear a ton about fix and flip partnership where the passive investor expects a rapid return on his/her money, but what about those of us who are looking to help those people who have large sums of money sitting in the bank earning negligible interest? How do we construct win win deal for the partner?

What do experienced investors like to see from a not so experienced investor when evaluating a potential partnership?

 I agree. I can't help but to think that bunch of identical multi-families clustered together would breed a "rent war" in which the only winners would be the tenants. Also, like you said one bad owner could wreak havoc on values.

@Craig Curelop Do agents typically expect some sort of compensation for the automatic feed?
