I charge a flat fee from buyers to assist them with wholesale deals in West Michigan and have wholesalers from Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Muskegon and other areas nearby just sending me their deals so I can push them out to my network of buyers.   

As a realtor I run the Michigan Lakeshore from Grand Haven to Ludington (and beyond), so I can talk up some other areas to consider for STR near vacation areas.

So if you have a hundred grand, you want to at least have 20 on hand, spend the 80, but don't put it into buying and holding investments.

My partner and I just bought our first multifamily in Grand Rapids, MI.

For either city I am open to long term rentals but would prefer if one unit could be used as a short term rental so that during my visits I can used it myself.Neighborhoods to consider for STR in Chicago Proper- Just about anywhere North of 290 except maybe Austin and West Garfield Park; Some good targets south of 290- Lower West Side; Bronzeville/Oakland; Bridgeport; Woodlawn (Near the University); Hyde Park (Needle in a Haystack); Kenwood (Needle in a Haystack); Grand Boulevard 

Hello All-I'm looking for a rockstar realtor who works with investors in the Grand Rapids/West Michigan area to help me find and acquire BRRRRs.Any suggestions?

You (your agent) should be able to identify issues over a couple grand during the showing.

24 years old and I currently live in Grand Rapids, a small town in northern Minnesota.
