Not so easyDisagreements happen - gotta be clear on who does whatActive participation required - not ideal for your hands-off friendsSyndicationProsLimited liability for your friends - they only risk what they investEasier to raise money from a bigger pool of investors - more cash for bigger deals!

Regardless of what your RE PRO or the listing broker tells you, verify from the horse's mouth directly and ideally in writing that the property is eligible and the specific application process. 5.

If you're targeting professionals traveling for work, 1 bedroom spaces are ideal.

Ideally, I would like to have each unit get a connection metered by the city, but is that even possible?

Not every existing multi-family is an ideal candidate for condo, but usually it is worthwhile and the sale prices of the individual pieces far exceeds the total un-condo value.

I’m managing 100+ properties mostly STR (airbnb). for STR-friendly areas, West Sac 95605, Natomas 95833-34 and Citrus Heights are ideal!

Until advanced I highly suggest getting the physical book because ideally you will come back 2, 3 times to each, and pickup more each time. 

If the right property is not actively listed, on average I'd say it takes a maximum of 60-180 days from intro for the ideal prospect to present itself. 

Ideally you'd want within a few blocks, maybe no more than half a mile for the comp to be accurate

@John Cava While the ideal time to get unbiased professional insight is before the transaction, getting such advice can still be very impactful at this point.
