My first fear for you is that you don't really know much based on your questions and you might need longer to learn it than just trying to get and fund this deal. 22 units, with only 2 multis as experience, makes it harder to find stranger money, but more probably to find friend or family money if that makes sense.

I think the truth that your post brings is in the level of sophistication and market insights of the investors and investment sponsors that are prevalent on these forums, the amount of money we are talking about, and the general idea that real estate, even when directly owned, is passive in nature.

Fear of litigation can be an excuse for persisting in doing things the way they have always been done, though.

Since I always wanted to learn more about real estate and OMG, he was good at selling (plus they create an atmosphere of preying on people's fear of missing out).

I want to rent it out instead of allowing it to sit vacant, but the other owners are hesitant to rent because of fears of dealing with potentially difficult tenants.

This "analysis paralysis" can prevent them from acting on opportunities out of fear of making the wrong decision.I’ve experienced this journey myself.

My name is Bill (full info below) and I live just over the Cape Fear River from Wilmington in Brunswick County.

I don’t plan on letting “Analysis Paralysis”, Fear, Lack of resources hold me back any longer for becoming more active in achieving MY Dreams as well. 

Don't let that fear keep you from using the tool that adds dramatically to your bottom line.

Will you be able to spot an issue by doing a drive by every couple of weeks.I'm challenging you Brian to get of the fear of "out of state".
