Both are in held in the same LLC or your name, you'll be net cash flow positive and be owning the debt, equity, and hard asset at different ratios that's relatively strong for performance growth in the portfolio.

I have thought about reaching out to cash buyers who have a decent sized portfolio about possibly managing their STR/MTR homes.

Income properties are an excellent way to start building your investment portfolio.

What type of properties are you looking to add to your portfolio?

If you’re looking to grow a larger portfolio quickly, financing might be the move.

By the way, from what I read in the Wall Street Journal, there’s a growing number of niche investors cropping up who love grabbing assignments that fly under the mainstream radar, especially if you’re bringing something fresh to the table like a distressed duplex they can reposition, or a small portfolio of row homes they can turn into long-term rentals.

I want to build up my portfolio with good long-term rentals, but I have trouble looking for good deals.

@Joe BellevilleTo build a successful multifamily property portfolio in Grand Rapids, set criteria for property type, location, and budget, build a team, analyze deals using the 1% rule, leverage house hacking, leverage local knowledge, prepare for tenant management, network, and focus on long-term goals.

I’m at a stage where I’ve built a small portfolio and now I need partners/investors in order to continue my rate of growth. 

@Simon Asselin what you are looking for is sometimes called "portfolio lending" and sometimes called a "blanket loan".
