I'll take a look at all three safe harbors to learn more about them.

@Jason Conner Have you GC done projects in the recent three years?

I managed to complete college in three years and really launch my business.

One way is to get a Hard Money loan, after you get two or three properties you can then bundle them together to get blanket loan.As already said low amount loans are hard to get and often take getting creative. 

When I do my own units, should I charge a really low price to my own property to make it self sufficient as it would then cover its own expenses, or should I charge the regular full price for cleaning and pay myself the entire cost for cleaning to boost my income?

I also learned that you can purchase up to three properties thru a 1031 exchange. 

None of the three will charge you and all provide a relaxed/social setting that you can ask questions from other investors and professionals. 

Those people have redemption rights, but they cannot foreclose or have a sheriff's sale or IRS seizure, etc.During the first three years, you can get the owner to release their redemption rights. 

The area has seen above inflation rates of appreciation for the last three years, and there is significantly more demand for housing than there is supply, leading some companies to create their own housing for their employees.

I currently have three condos on the market for a client of mine, where the seller is offering seller financing, with 20% down at a competitive 6.75%, 3 year balloon.
