@Shawn Smith we've got several clients from Toronto and also Vancouver.So, we've got referrals for experienced tax attorneys, CPA's, etc. for Canadians and foreigner investors in general.What are you purchase criteria?

To avoid any missteps, I am seeking an experienced partner to help double-check my findings and potentially invest together.

@Lauren Cartmell 95%+ of agents only know how to do owner-occupied transcations:(So, be careful.Adding to the advice already shared, an experienced investor agent will know that there will be no showings without an accepted offer - to avoid pissing off your tenants with constant showings.

Looking for guidance on options. new builds aren't hard to finance and I would argue they are preferred to existing fix and flip loans, especially if you have experience. banks look at your experience, your builder's experience, loan structure, permits, etc you need to get an experienced builder familiar with advanced underwriting and negotiations with local, regional, and national lenders. in columbus we do ground up construction for clients at a 20% discount so they can BRRRR out of the new build with equity and we have pages and pages of data on what we build and why and it's all supported by market statistics. 

You will certainly gets lots of different perspectives from the forums and most likely multiple people will have experienced a similar situation in their investing journey!

For something more robust, tools like Excel or online calculators from financial planning sites might better suit your needs.Your ROI Formula:ROI = (Net Cash Flow ÷ Total Out-of-Pocket Investment) × 100For your scenario:Net Cash Flow = Annual Rental Income - (Mortgage Payment + 401k Loan Payment + Other Expenses)Total Out-of-Pocket Investment = $40,000 cash + $50,000 loan payments over 5 years.I came across a piece in Bloomberg recently discussing creative financing, and they touched on ROI calculations for multiple loans.Personal anecdote: A buddy of mine leveraged a 401k loan for a fourplex.

Do i t to build your online presence, reputation and credibility as a business.

How many experienced failure and gave up?

i remembered your other post from a while back, and i know you're experienced. but were also feeling overleveraged. 

Thank you  My recommendation is to sign up at paperstac, debexpert and some of the online sites that sell loans as well as join some fb groups on note investing as people push loans through there as well.
