Of course I’m not selling you a course or Mentorship so I have no reason to ham it up.

Assuming the new value after renovations appraises at $350k of course. 

I can't see what you would need a course to teach you that you can't learn by reading 30 Day Stay; listening to the BP podcast episodes with Sarah Weaver, Zeona McIntyre, and Jesse Vasquez; and hanging out in MTR forums/Facebook groups.

Nobody ever went broke over a duplex, I know this now,  but I have to admit I had some serious doubts about this when I started 16 years ago, I bought every course I could find, already on CD's, this was post cassette tapes lol, and I paid RichDad Education for a one year coaching program (turned out my coach was a girl in a call center without any actual experience). 

I am open to all information or tips.

Any tips or advice would be appreciated!!

any suggestions about courses/mentors/coaches on this topic? 

Be ready for a wealth of information at your finger tips.

I replied below but also curious your thoughts:I stepped back from my W2 to go travel internationally and am currently working towards getting my real estate license (my goal is to work as realtor and/or property manager while acquiring properties) This of course makes it difficult for me to get pre qualified so that is where the idea of family partner comes in - he qualifies us on the loan.

This is a forum of highly skilled investors and very few people on here use a local property management firm, it’s just a waste of money.Of course there are a few property managers on this forum, and they will of course tell you that you must have their services.
