Unfortunately most detached duplexes are smaller homes (our largest is 4 BR/2 BA but most are 2 BR). 

-What is the smallest/ largest loan you make (to see if you can build a relationship and scale with this person)?

It may be that most of the largest syndicators only take accredited investors but there are many of us who are happy to work with non-accredited investors under rule 506(b). 

I would plan to pay for majority of upgrades with a line of credit.I have a few additional reasons beyond monthly cash savings to sub-meter the electric: 1) There is one thermostat in the house, controlled only by tenants in the largest unit.

As we celebrated the birth of our first born, and I worked from home, the walls closed in – so we went in search of a larger home and decided to rent it (we got just enough to cover the mortgage, but the taxes went up and before long, the difference was $100+/-month) …..and we took the first tenants who showed interest with $ in hand….which, unfortunately, were college students (The largest school in the nation , UCF, is 10 min away).

Schwarzman’s and Sternlicht’s rental ventures, last month sold the largest ever rent-backed bond.

This brings my to my current plan which any feedback would be greatly appreciated. l could buy a piece of property in between the two locations and rent tiny houses to the students with a recreational building located on the property.

I expect my largest obstacle will be my credit score.

This way hopefully I can secure the lowest interest rate for the largest loanWhat is the best strategy to apply for multiple loans with minimizing impact on credit score.

For training in first position notes I learned through @Scott Carson - he and Eddie speed are the two largest I am familiar with.
