@Joe BellevilleTo build a successful multifamily property portfolio in Grand Rapids, set criteria for property type, location, and budget, build a team, analyze deals using the 1% rule, leverage house hacking, leverage local knowledge, prepare for tenant management, network, and focus on long-term goals.

Once you've been preapproved, you can find an investor-focused agent in your market that will set you up with an email list of properties that match your criteria.

If you didn't want to be bound by the terms of the loan, which is set forth by the written loan agreement and mortgage documents (and not what your loan officer told you), you shouldnt have agreed to the terms and taken the loan - you shouldve gotten a different loan.

I come in peace.  

Bonus points if they could set me up with a LOC!
