Door-knocking is on my radar, but if there’s an efficient workaround for reaching out to expireds, I’d love to know!

While looking at a unit next door (MLS), I met the owner of this unit by chance and started talking.

Owner-occupied transactions are mostly emotional decision based.Investors should check emotions at the door and only make business based decisions.What does that mean in practice?

with no experience, it wouldn't make sense to borrow the capital of a private lender.if you have enough cash to buy a property with a traditional down payment to get your foot in the door, you can do so. 

Are these business partners where you are growing a portfolio together or are you just trying to get your foot in the door?

It's absolutely worth taking a deeper dive.I've been investing in Detroit proper since 2019 and have 12-doors there.

I've spotted a package deal for two duplexes right next door to each other.

We have about 100 doors there, just need to know what you are doing. 

It covers your down payment and in most cases the closing costs depending on what state you live in or County.Focus on 2-4 unit multifamily homes first if possible because you can use 75% of the rents per month of each door/unit as income to qualify. 

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases.
