If you’re serious about buying properties and doing real estate, then I would suggest working with the CPA that understands real estate even if the services cost more than your average H&R Block or some TurboTax program you can buy.

The partials we purchase are usually on shorter term notes i.e. 120-240 month terms and investor loans to other investors that typically put 15-25% down. 

Some operators really need better training and education and drag down the great operators who are doing it right and offer a great service and product.

I'd talk and look at forums at strategies but with your capital you typically need 100-150k in liquidity to do this. 

For comparison purposes, I hold ownership units in a LLC that owns a retail/service center where there is a mortgage loan that initially represented 50% of value, now about 35%.  

When a PM does charge a markup, he's usually getting a discount on the service to keep the cost stable.

We have considered doing airbnb and switching to nightly rentals, the cashflow would be better but its also a lot more work and expense as we would have to schedule cleaners and do more laundry service.

The open floor plan and natural lighting make the space seam bright and airy while the community features like the tennis courts Pool and guard service will make you feel at home.

So could start with some community banks in Cleveland since you are local.Residential loans for the most part are serviced by Fannie Freddy but commercial loans can be much more diverse with their products so having a few options has always helped me a ton. 

When the whole covid shutdown occurred, I dropped out of college to help my father's service business maintaining and remodeling residential and commercial buildings.
