@Dean GulloTo build connections in Southington and surrounding areas, join local real estate meetups, connect through BiggerPockets forums, get involved with local landlord associations, reach out to real estate professionals, attend town or community events, and expand your team.

Best to involve attorneys/lawyers as well, but it depends on the type of financing you get.  

Steps 2 & 3 would be the main contributions of a Civil Engineer who is involved. 

Also did not know a possible payment method could be so polarizing.

Also, multi-unit sales involve more legal and financial nuances than single family homes so it will be in your best interests to work with an agent.

As an accredited investor you have access to hundreds of new potential syndications every month (and crowdfunding deals which are the same thing except are allowed to market on the Internet).You may want to start off on a site like CrowdStreet or FinResi , where you can view the variety ( different types of asset classes, strategies, stances) and start to come up with your own method for looking at deals (which matches your unique, personal  risk tolerance, financial situation and financial goals).Thanks Ian.

Hi Alex - There is a different things to consider when involving international investors.

@Jaskanwal Preet Singh ChhabraRefinancing a converted property for coliving involves appraisal, loan types, interest rate reduction, and careful planning.

Because first and foremost it requires you getting INVOLVED, putting in some rep's, and if you won't get involved and won't put in the rep's you will never, I repeat you will NEVER succeed in investment real estate or any business venture EVER, full-stop. 

The biggest issue is most of these "gurus" that get new wholesalers involved teach them to be deceptive when they approach realtors.
