With over 30 years of experience in Commercial Real Estate, I specialize in the sales and dispositions of investment properties across Los Angeles and the U.S.  

There is a lot to consider before you buy your first property.  

That is the true value of participating in things like this that are a bit more involved. 

So, we bought the property 2 years ago, based on the valuation of the property considering income from 6 units.The sale deeds (from 2018- 3 sales) I could get from the City and the property tax statements (2023,2024) show that the property is zoned as 411 (apartments).

@Treza Edwards "I am reading the Rental Property Investing book and implementing the method that focuses on cash flow and that strategy states you need to have $300 cash flow per month, per property.

If you do the deal, ensure you have your property taxes set aside, because with seller financing there is not an impound process to handle the taxes and insurance. 

But others investors with different risk tolerances, goals and financial situations invest in the platform.2) I feel directly owned properties are great because they give me maximum control and the ability to tweak them exactly how I want.

Looking to possibly start investing with some whole sale properties and land.

Not your own rehab at your own property.

The reality of investing is often much different than people see on social media - you need the fuel to power your investment properties!
