KwanzaHi Kwanza, I can help answer this question as I've worked with investors and helped them buy LTRs, MTRs, and STRs (own quite a few myself as well).

That is our commitment to our investors. 

@Michael James Hamlin I'm a former tax accountant/business consultant turned fix n flipper and investor friendly agent. 

I want to connect with more investors, wholesalers, real estate pros, anyone and everyone as I look to not only do my job better but grow my portfolio.Looking forward to networking and learning from this great community.

We are not the right choice for everyone, but we do help hundreds of investors every year start and progress their investing goals.
