Again, large commitment of time, patience, and ability needed.The amateur of “semi pro” investor should realize that the professional investors (such as myself) spend ALL DAY EVERY DAY doing the above.  

Insurance for 1-4 families is reasonable.

I know I could have a family member co-sign a mortgage with me but not sure the best way to approach that conversation and what incentives I’d be able to offer to make it worth while for them other then their “familial duties” haha. 

Sorry, have not been on in a while - I did not attend the event and currently have decided not to pursue RAL and focus on our single family and multifamily properties.

Quote from @Najeh Davenport:  Hey BP family, I’m hoping to get some advice because I’ve hit a bit of a roadblock with a refinance, and I’m not sure what my next steps should be.

A traditional single-family rental may net you only $280/month, whereas a co-living setup can bring in over $1,100/month from the same property.4.

In-person interactions are great for building trust with potential investors.Real Estate Platforms:BiggerPockets: A robust platform for connecting with private lenders and investors.Fund That Flip, PeerStreet, Groundfloor: Online platforms connecting investors with real estate projects.Social Media Groups: Facebook and LinkedIn groups dedicated to real estate investing often have private investors or lenders looking to connect.Personal Network: Often overlooked, but friends, family, and colleagues may know individuals interested in investing.Private Money Brokers: If you're working on wholesaling deals, you may find brokers who have established relationships with private money lenders.Real Estate Agents: Some agents have connections with private investors, especially those focused on investment properties.For your 50% LTV, it's good to approach investors who may be interested in lower-risk, high-equity deals.

If you have a lot of family in OK, that can be a great place to start assessing since you have dedicated boots on the ground, as well as a reason to visit.Don't overthink the analyzing of markets when you are still figuring things out.

Currently my husband are out of state investors with 3 single family rentals in KC. 

I selected Lewiston for the post as I didn't see an Augusta option, but I do work all over the state.It was my family's property management business that brought me to Maine and sparked my interest in and passion for helping investors achieve their goals.
