This is actually one of the main reasons many agents and investors may not like them generally speaking (they are often not serious professionals with a proven track record of success, the vast majority are struggling to find their first deal and are time-wasters to interact with).   

That’ll give you flexibility to automate and integrate workflows as your needs evolve.A direct booking site is a nice-to-have down the line if you want to save on platform fees and build a brand, but starting with platforms like Furnished Finder or VRBO is a solid way to keep things simple while you’re getting started.Good luck—sounds like you’re on the right track!

If the wholesaler was established, had a track record and you can vet them that's different.

Thanks for any help’ Yes we're licensed there and FHA guides in one state apply to all states unless a state has a specific law that supercedes the FHA lending guideline.FHA is always 3.5% down minimum (in some cases less because you're using a DPA or down payment assistance program or 2nd lender to put down over all a lower down payment than 3.5%, Aka for instance 3.5% DPA + 96.5% FHA = 100% financing but just dont kid yourself this is fully 100% leverage and to be used with caution and carefully).In the case of 2-4 unit FHA is still 3.5% down payment @Matthew Kwan @Carlos ValenciaThere are rules regarding FHA such as:- primary residence - you must occupy one of the 2-4 unit property as your primary over 50% of the year and the underwriter needs to believe you will remain and have the ability to live in there, any deviation from this and you'll get a whole laundry list of conditions asking you to prove why you should be believed to be living or will live there (if this arises dont be surprised, it just means the UW doesnt believe you).- SS rule - self sufficiency rule - gross rents of all potential units 2-4  X gross rents at 75% needs to meet 1:1 or 100% of the monthly PITIA payment or greater.

Why go to a lender that has no presence online when there are plenty of lenders with lots of reviews / track records on places like here and Google?

Books are important to maintain because it keeps track of the performance of the partnership not only for one year but over several years.Partners normally have the right to inspect the books.Will the accountant you work with either maintain the books for you or help you make sure its done correctly?

Just because you are tracking ahead of that estimate does not mean your deal is bad.Do you believe your capex is structurally higher than you modeled?

Would your realtor be willing to assist me for acquisition.

It’s essential to consider factors like payment plans, projected infrastructure developments, and the track record of the developer to make informed decisions.The most successful investors are those who carefully analyse the potential of each project rather than being swept away by the allure of glossy marketing.
