If your sale is something large enough to split then a transitional strategy of buying a modest NNN for cash and then leveraging on a single family home, or a DST to absorb your debt might be just the fit for you.

Do some digging yourself and have conversations with several companies to see which one’s the best fit for you.

You'll have to follow through with quote requests from each to see which one best fits your scenario. 

When we look for properties we set a pretty defined criteria so that it enables us to only spend time on the properties that fit for us. 10-90 units, C+ or better areas in Jacksonville and Orlando, has a value-add component.I would suggest trying to work backwards, especially since this is somewhere you want to live.

Don't force fit a Value when the return just isn't there.

I'm also having fits with traditional banks because the loan would be considered commercial.

I have connected with an RE-focused agent who is sending me properties to research, but I'm not sure if he is the right fit yet.

It's a great market to look at and see if it fits your criteria.  

Burke@Bob Kessing Thanks for your response, its looking good, I just need to do a little more due diligence and i'll decide if it will be a good fit. 

All in all, I feel like Madison is a good fit for me to get my foot in the door, build my local team, and get to know the local market better.
