It's been a pretty cool journey and has allowed me to leave my W2, however, I've come to the realization that my current strategy of delayed gratification is no longer working for me.

In most of those cases, their broker took a high fee and the investor didn't end up with a great deal.Here are a couple of things that are a tipoff you are not working with a broker with your interests at heart (1) they want to pull your credit before having a conversation, or (2) they send you a long list of things you need to provide them before learning about you and your deal.The conversation should start with why you are interested in REI, then understanding your strategy to get there.

There are so many different strategies within the venue space that I am surprised also that there are not more investors talking about it. 

In short, having all the conversations and commitments in strategy, setting up LLC and all the fun docs of who's doing what, and I'd suggest even getting initial funding into account for at least EM. 

Even a brief consultation can clarify your legal standing and provide additional strategies tailored to Raleigh’s market.Have you considered asking other local landlords how they’ve handled early lease terminations?

I saw it coming so I forced myself to learn REI strategies and to read this forums 2-3 times per week.

With the current mortgage rate constraints affecting how many buyers are willing to enter the market we are seeing a lot of borrowers have success with the BRRRR strategy with plans to sell in the next 3-5 years when interest rates go down.Researching potential LTR and STR rental amounts and seeing if holding for a few years is a viable option is a good analysis to do well. 

That said, my main question is, can you recommend a good mortgage brokerage company that offers all the training points you outlined in your post?

Focus on strategies that align with your needs, like turnkey properties, build-to-rent options, or small multifamily buildings, especially if you prefer less hands-on management.

But the lawsuit reveals details that are hard to ignore: emails, phone calls, and even group meetings allegedly used to share strategies for keeping rents high.
