If you are searching for offmarket, you can network with local wholesalers, and also use something like dealmachine to generate leads.

I’m here to connect with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and continue learning from this incredible community.

@Jason Malabute Yep - I'm currently invested with BAM in Fund #1 and Fund #3 (no money in the war-chest when #2 came around)Distributions have been consistent and reliable and Fund #1 has already generated a 2x equity multiple.

When I partnered with friends on a multi-unit property a few years ago, we chose individual umbrella polcies from our personal providers.

In many of these financings, the buyer paid a purchase price based at least partially on the increased cash flow generated by the property being “proven” as a successful STR.  

Learn the lawsDon't use a contract "off the internet", laws vary by state and are also regulated on a federal level Learn the financing techniques correctlyDon’t skip parts of the processDon’t ever do a “kitchen table” closingUse the proper deedAn attorney can help you with the legal work, but the rest you are on your ownYour guru will not bail you out“Investing” in someone else’s deal by providing a small 2nd loan so the “investor” can pay for “cash to the seller” and for “closing costs” so he can do the deal is a very bad planKnow what problems can ariseLearn the responses and solutions to problems before they are needed Know everything there is to know about Title and what that meansKnow who a "protected class" individual isLearn the "back doors"Learn human natureUnderstand timelinesUnderstand regulation enforcement (some of these "mistakes" have a 10 year statue of limitations ( they can charge you 10 years AFTER you do the transaction) and carry hefty fines and possible imprisonmentThe court doesn't accept "I didn't know" for an answer"Know that the source of the lead plays a serious role in some states and federallyKnow how much of a "profit" pushes the boundaries to invite an investigationYou can be sued by the seller if you don’t do things correctlyYou are automatically at fault if an investigator or attorney or regulator gets involved.

Quote from @Nadia Jones: Also posted in Getting Started Forum, but figured multifamily category may also generate some responses...so posting here as well. 

I’m new to the field, but I’m eager to learn, connect, and grow with like-minded individuals who have experience or are also just starting out.I’ve always been drawn to entrepreneurship, and wholesaling real estate caught my attention as a great way to build a business while helping others find investment opportunities.

I’m exploring the idea of turning it into a furnished long-term rental to hold onto it, generate income, and possibly return to STR when things settle down.However, I’m new to the furnished LTR space and would love advice!

My current brokerage does not help generate any leads or anything like that.
