What are other options do we have if we don't have piror experience? 

Research ways to use your education to help you qualify for a loan (did you know that some lenders allow college credits that translate directly to the line of work the graduate pursues to count towards work experience, accelerating the borrower's opportunity to get approved for a mortgage?). 

Anyone have experience renting a Non-Conforming triplex unit that meets Code through Section 8? 

Does anyone have any experience with any of these platforms?

@James SillsFrom my experience working with investors, transitioning from residential to commercial real estate (CRE) is an exciting and achievable goal with the right foundation.

This consist of having a good agent preferably one that works with and has investor experience.

I would research as much as I can on those markets and join your local investment Facebook groups as well because there are local investors who can share more experiences as well. 

I found investors to do well when they already have experience in their local market.

My name is Kevin Upton, i am new to Real Estate Investing and looking to learn from those with more experience than i do.

We've sold off some of the smaller, lower end properties, and redeployed that capital into something that is a little higher end experience.
