Usually the type of work has to be dealing with the real estate itself, not just providing a service that is applied to a part of the house/building. 

Do I just have to go by the actual numbers like revenue from last owner and taxes?

Same with houses and the MLS.

Which options do you guys think are best when you have no money to put down on a house for flipping?

Your financial background is a huge asset, and it’s great that you’re starting locally in Milwaukee while keeping an eye on future expansion.If you’re looking to connect with like-minded investors, the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin is a fantastic resource for networking with rental portfolio owners, accessing legal resources, and finding contractors. https://www.aasew.org/For mentors, funding sources, and flippers, the Milwaukee REIA is another great group to explore. https://www.milwaukeereia.com/I’m a member of both and find unique value in each—maybe we’ll cross paths at a future meeting!

If you ever have questions on landlord software or student housing, I'm a great resource!

End of that relationship came when owner called us and expected us to go pick up their guy, who's truck broke down, and drive him to the house - and didn't want to pay us anything for this!

I'm curious of the current market demand for student housing and appeal to rental investors.
