I have been a lender catering to funds, investors and consumers for the last 4 years but my family has owned Multifamily my entire life and it helped put me through college during the recession.

How many units can you successfully manage on your own, without it totally consuming you're life and having it screw up your day job....I'm at 14, and I gotta say this is getting pretty tough at times

I have access to Realist, and there's SOME information you can gather from the tax records, but not all homes have it, and it has proven to be quite time consuming (for example, if it says it was bought/refi-ed at 27k in 2011, I can run it through a mortgage calculator to get an idea of what current equity might be).

With a history of home rehab and resale to consumers on the North Side of Indianapolis as well as a background in value add property management, I'm looking to leverage my experience as to create a network of professionals to buy properties for rehab and resale in multiple areas of Indianapolis. 

I've spoken to some agents in the Boston area who've mentioned receiving wholesaling fees upwards of $20k on one deal.

Those aren't exactly something the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has made optional...My BS detector is starting to activate.

Door knocking is good too ( time consuming i recommend doing this with properties you really want and know could be a gold mine). 

Capital Expenses, items that are not just consumables like appliances, roofing, AC, all have what is called a Class Life and get depreciated according to IRS rules for that Class.  

. $30,000 to pay off some high interest consumer debt.  

Which in turn allows more competitive interest rate pricing to be offered to the consumer because the lender puts some of that extra profit in their pocket, and passes some of it onto you.These 5+ financed property loans have no special thing that helps it sell for more on the secondary market than Fannie's base offer price.
