While I was running my inspection business, trying to build a real estate business, and taking care of 4 rentals with family, I was also going to night school to get a degree in MIS.

Build sleeping pods that are mostly soundproof (double walled construction) and ventilated. 

Building up a rental portfolio, flipping, wholesaling? 

Over the years every single time I went over his house to hang out we would talk about money, investing and the future we were building.

With that in mind, I’m considering purchasing four rental units over the next four years to build a stream of income that could help supplement my retirement by age 68.The challenge I’m facing is that the deals I’ve come across so far don’t make financial sense.

I currently work with investors looking to build their portfolio with single-family, long-term rentals while managing for them on the back end, making is hands-free for the investor to still work their W-2 job and live their everyday lives and spend it with family, hobbies, etc. 

Focus on one strategy, practice analyzing deals, and take consistent small steps like attending events and building relationships.

I am considering working with a property developer in NJ to buy land, build a duplex/triplex and sell it (6-9 month time horizon).  

So is it equally illegal when the large landlords drop rental prices in a building as vacancy increases and the market softens?

The goal is to start building long term relationship with, so any names would be appreciated.
