My goal is to create a second passive income stream to exceed my families expenses.

You may find someone to move.in shortly after it is vacant which saves the owner's income stream and the departing Tenants deposit.

If you end up with a steady stream of good deals and are looking to wholesale them to an investor like myself, I would love to be added to your buyer's list.

Looking to raise $500(k) to expand our business and keep the revenue stream high.  

Changing ownership "mid-stream" is usually problematic for the current lender.As always, consult your Legal professional for advice. 

Looking for thoughts on or ways that REI's use for leveraging their rental income stream. 

If not you will notice a shift in attitude.Instead we tie good tenant behavior to a discount in rent, movie tickets or something that says "we appreciate that you are a good tenant".

I will definitely keep my job, until I have some solid knowledge and income stream from RE.

I've never done any deals but want to learn and need another stream of income for my family.

I am have been blessed in the business.Although I just came from the Big Short  movie and my wife and I almost left in tears... it brought back the traumatic few years were we were neck deep in the turmoil...
