There are definitely deals to be had here that will cashflow but it is a skill game to find properties as there isn't much low hanging fruit left. 

Try bandit signs, call FSBOs, rental sign numbers, rental ads in craigslist and start figuring out what markets you want to direct mail to..spend some time with this so you arent wasting your money direct mailing to markets that won't bear much fruit.  

I hope your career is fruitful, exciting and fun.

Get some ideas of what you will be able to borrow, and what your cost of capital will be.This will make shopping for deals much more fruitful, and also make your ROI calculations more accurate (since you'll have a clearer idea of how much you'll be paying to the lender).Feel free to contact me directly if you have any more questions.

Interesting, so it sounds like the pain points for agents in NYC are really the scheduling/coordination and also the board package which seems to be a pain to put together. 

Certainly look forward to meets as I would like to reach out to others in the area and get recommendations for agents, lenders, and good contractors to work with.

I would like to offer an incentive for agents to bring their investors to buy my deals by offering a commission. 

Hope the investments out there are fruitful, cashflowing machines !

For it to be a successful and fruitful partnership you should each have something that the other is lacking in.

It is a really interesting transition from not starting with too much bigger picture capital and doing much of the work yourself to over time as you start to reap the fruits of your labor, you can delegate more and more and hopefully enjoy a bit more while doing a bit less!
