If you're ever interested in learning more about lease options, I teach it for free to my interns who want to take a crack at it and learn the system before venturing out on their own.

For this reason, I have made and looking to make passive investments with syndicators that have shown to have a proven record in not only giving solid returns, but educating their investors throughout the process in some fashion.   

You'll need to do an Internal Rate of Return calculation for the entire term of the loan you are proposing, or until you resell the loan to another investor. 

I am also currently employed as an intern with a local electrical contractor.

Areas like NE and Uptown are like the hot fashion trend your dad knows about (hint if your dad knows about it you missed the trend), everyone knows they are popular and they are overpriced.

If not any recommendations to acquire 2 multi families in this fashion with fairly no money out of pocket. 

@Elaine Lau, as an investor, i've got my own internal underwriting.

I have an internal B.S.

Work part time or full time as an intern for some summers.

Just some old fashion hard work will be necessary.
