Multifamily properties (2-4 units) can be a great way to build your portfolio while minimizing risk—especially with FHA or conventional low-down-payment options.Also, networking is huge.

For an investment property (purchased as an owner occupant), that is insane. 

Hey everyone,I am curious how different property managers handle maintenance requests.

Quote from @Noah Davis: Hi Everyone,I am looking to buy 10 investment properties this year.

I’m new to private money lending, so while I understand the concepts in principle, I’m still figuring out how to identify and connect with these investors in practice.To clarify, I’m targeting 6+ unit multifamily properties, and private money is a way to scale my expertise from smaller properties into larger ones.

Quote from @Marc Zak: In the market where I live (San Diego), appreciation has been strong and many predict it will continue to appreciate in the long term.However, with current interest rates (6% at best) and property tax (2%), the annual cost burden is 8%.Am I correct in saying that appreciation has to be above 8% annually (plus whatever my maintenance and vacancy costs are) for me to make any money in this scenario if the property is cash flow neutral?

What are realistic rents for a property in this price range?
