I personally am not investing at the moment. 

The associates I know at the moment aren't in this realm and I would like to have some sort of guidance moving into this next steps.So I'm looking for developers/mentors to help me move forward.

Quote from @Christian Styles: Hey Luka, sorry you're not loving Cleveland at the moment, I'm interested to know specifically where your properties are located.

I took it as a learning moment.  

I have gotten a seller's credit for my 3 existing units but to be conservative, I will assume I am paying full closing costs here.At the moment, I have ~$25k in a HYSA and expect to save another $10k from my W-2 before I start putting offers in.

This is in terms of where i’d live and i know each and every one of these blocks like the back of my hand, but at the moment i wouldn’t invest where i wouldn’t like to live, which is why i invest specifically in these 2 neighborhoods because of how intimately i understand them.

First, the amount of learning I did since that moment 15 years ago cannot possibly be overstated.

At the moment, our data is only available for Philadelphia.

If the rehabber/contractor wants to pay me out, let them give me a price to walk away vs "demanding a fee" for lack of better terminology at the moment?

Anything less that 5 years is very risky unless you have cash available to buy the property on a moment's notice.
