Pursuing Section 8 rentals & tenants is a TOOL, not a strategy - despite whatever the self-appointed "gurus" publish online.Section 8 comes with it's own unique problems which many newbies don't take the time to understand.You can PM us if you want to discuss further.

An article on Biggerpockets by Anthony Greer, published this year, https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/how-to-calculate-roi-on-a-rental-property, presents a different take on NOI calculation.

However, we aren’t W2 employees, all that income is from 1099 independent contractor work, which of course will limit what financing we can qualify for.

So far I found a couple people but not someone independent yet.Correct, this would be a private placement.Posting on a crowdfunding platform is not the route I wish to go as I plan to make my Series offerings on my own platform.The key that I am seeing so far is that most (virtually all) brokers/RIAs do not have the software in place for handling fractional real estate. 

to be honest, i would just not tell them what your after.. i have been scouting out brokers since i just passed my state exam here in Florida and i have found that many agents in the office are only part time or still have their license at the office, but after a few months found no success and had to get another job in hopes of coming back and never did.. so many agents according to the brokers ive talked to had many agents with 0 sales for the entire year.. your an independent contractor to them, they cant force you to bring them business.. they make money no matter what way you find houses using their office...

Looking to buy some properties (MFH) in Independence,MO area and looking for referrals for agent, PM and contractor from the BP community. 

@Danny Wu I cant answer that question right now but as I learn more about this area's market i'll talk to you about it. look online and do some research @Sean Lauber , my job pays me very well, but I'm looking for more financial independence.

Like Jon we also use Rentec Direct to publish all our vacancies. 

Now we are moving forward with properties to buy and hold and flip  and yes many are in c  neighborhoods where the cash flow is amazing...Its been a challenging year with many twists but would not give it up for the world not am hooked...IN this case I would walk from the deal to many loose ends ..and I always like reports from building inspectors they are independent and tell it like it is

My personal credit is nearing 800, and our businesses have established relationships with several banks' commercial departments where all of the financial responsibilities have been met over time on our part, but I didn't know if ultimately, an entity could have an independent credit rating.I have an account at a local lumber yard that reports to Dunn and Bradstreet, but upon further research, Dunn and Bradstreet didn't appear to hold much weight from the brief digging that I did.
