I, as financial professional, look at most data analytically when there is more to it. 

The down payment was financed between my business partner and I, as well as a Credit Union.

Or am I, as the kids say, 'a total noob' Thanks guys!

I have an opportunity for a 4 plex in a small town in Iowa(less then 250 people) located 15 minutes for a town of 6,500.

Am I missing an elephant in the room or am I a god at finding rental properties?!

Looking to be an investor from Iowa, looking to make connections and learn.

If I as a new investor brought an off market deal and presented it to an investor(s), did all of the work to get the transaction closed (I’m an agent!)

If not house hacking look at duplexes in the midwest. we have some properties in my area around 150-200 that would cash flow in iowa but other areas in the midwest would cash flow as well.

For you, I would think you might want to find a property that will still cash flow decently if you get stationed somewhere else, or have to go on an IA or something similar.  

Hey @Dion Jones, you can try @Manaia Alalamua.
