Especially in a low income neighborhood, I'd want to understand why you aren't following the typical path of maxing out what society says you can afford, 3x.

Something involving my giving back to society.

Although I am not the expert on this I would be happy to connect you to my contact at YNDO URBAN.

If you continue to attempt to reach your goal every time you fail you'll eventually wholesale that first deal.Don't get caught into the urban legend that you can be successful at this job without a budget.

Best, BobThe folks in the St Pete area that made this work for us:Ron Puckett of Ron Puckett Construction (GC)Rob Van Stronder of Keller Williams  David Kweller of Kweller Mechanical (air conditioning)Jillian Biltz of Urban Upgrades (colors and interior design)There are many others who helped along the way.  

I only do MFH but I live in a very urban environment where 54% of housing is MFH - and 24% are SFH with the rest as condos.

If they were everyone would be rich.In terms of unit mix, the more units in a building the greater protection against vacancy loss, however the more units the higher the priceIf you do not have 20% to put down odds are that you will have to use FHA financing which is only available for owner occupants.Where I live I could not get a good cashflowing property in an area I would like to live, so I buy in more urban areas.

I've looked into many properties offered to me in desert California, city of Detroit, upstate New York, urban Ohio and other places where I can't make them work if you give them to me.

The job of police and prosecutors are to protect society from folks like that.

Society is breaking down to urban farming and sharecroping.
