I think for Grand Rapids you want to target a property that simply isn't suited for an owner occupant who will need a loan in its condition. 

Seems to me like the pieces of the puzzle that you're missing are some of my stronger suits and the things I'm looking for (have no construction partner) are your forte. 

I'm specifically curious for whch neighborhoods best suit young professionals (we are early 30s; couple years before kids).    

Most banks have restrictions and a Clause where the mortgage/loan becomes "Due on Sale".The biggest benefit of going from personal to LLC is to protect your assets against a law suit due to an injury or death by someone renting or using the property.

Now they go out again, Jay is now @realestatedoctor_1 on Instagram and Ricardo, more hard-faced, offers the same "business model" through https://offfloridadeals.com/.

I want to be in the C-suite and have a big compant badly but at the same time I dont want to have to be working 12 hours a day for the next 30 years.

The "false scarcity" and "gaslighting" stuff must come from some Instagram guru talking about deep emotional intelligence or relationship problems advice.

That region will require some risk mitigation, and would be better suited for a local flipper specializing in those types of properties vs buy and hold OOS IMO. 

I would follow Benjamin Moore on Instagram.

For instance, a new suit is not a write off, but a uniform for your business is.
