I see a lot of newer agents if they don't have a warm market or sphere to tap into.. they will get on a big producers team.. this can jump start you.out our way agencies have lead creation systems and will literally hand you web leads for listings or sales.My wife had taken a few year hiatus and to kind of jump start ( her normal business is referrals) but she wanted to work some leads and get going and it worked very well she made many sales and got a few listing which in this market is simply money in the bank. find your niche.. and remember 95% of agents all try the same thing.. you may want to specialize.. and commerical agents though dog tough to start if you make it.. its a really good business once your established.

I rehabs single families and with this opportunity I can considering stepping up to commerical.

Carlos Casanueva Do you want to lead or participate in a commerical multifamily as an LP?

If you want higher interest owner financing it’s usually because you don’t have 25% to put down for a commerical loan.

One property has a commerical space in the front that historically has been used as a take-out food stand, which could be profitable. 

@Terry Royce commerical properties are properties that are not residential rentals.

Commerical loan?

We received for the first time a 1099 Misc. from a Commerical Tenant of a property for rent that is held in our Self Directed IRA. 

My question is: Is it more appealing to out-of-state investors looking to invest in Kansas City, to have a 5-plex commerical multi-family, or to have them subdivided into a 3-plex and a duplex side by side so you can get a residential loan on each of them separately?

Most private lenders limit to four rentals per building for commerical, but usually can make an exception if a borrower has a proven track record of rental properties.
