Hey @Dan Porat Are you looking to acquire properties based on watching this deal analysis or is it just pure entertainment?

wrong market wrong agent. if you have to post 6 paragraphs asking for advice on a realtor the problem is the realtor. if you are looking up comparable sales for your realtor you are with the wrong realtor. saying you are newer too and asking about if it's normal also shows you should get with someone with more experience. a lot of people joke about columbus ohio and how many agents there are in the market active on here but at the same time that gives you a lot of options. depending on your liquidity and funds I'd look around.

I am located in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and looking to acquire multi-family properties.

It was a learning experience but I made it work in the end.Mine was a 5 unit commercial building that needed a gut renovation, similar to yours. 

Building wealth quickly is not an enjoyable experience—you have to go through some pain to experience the reward at the end.Trust me, from personal experience: the quicker the wealth building = the more pain.

@Joel Oh- if you are using a loan to acquire the property - the lender  requires  insurance ....if you own the property  free and  clear - your  choice  but I would still  recommend  insurance 

While I know Brandon and his team has experience, the going in cap rate is very low for MHP (I was told mid single digit).

We are also close to pulling the trigger on acquiring another nearby single family home for a second STR.

In my opinion, the only valid investment strategy to acquire real estate for low money down, even though it still requires about 3%-5% down, is to house hack.

College does sound like a useful and fun experience that I would like to partake in.
