For personal and logistical reasons (i.e. work, social, and school), we're primarily interested in the following neighborhoods: Greenpoint, Williamsburg, Bushwick (bordering Williamsburg), Crown Heights, Prospect Heights, and Prospect Lefferts Gardens.

You can also learn a lot about these topics simply by watching relevant YouTube videos...It's important to consider that college often teaches you a lot more than just the topics of the courses--almost regardless of their major, a successful college student learns time management, planning and organization skills, learning skills, critical and logistical thinking skills, written and verbal communication skills and "people skills" that tend to be useful in almost any field (including RE).

These groups offer logistical support to help manage and raise funds for projects such as yours.Contacting people on this short list will get you started, I think.

I find you can spend a lot of time trying to figure out logistics when an appliance breaks, they are not fun to haul or install and are inconvenient so I think a great business to be in because it solves a lot of problems.

As a newbie looking for my first investment property, I am a bit confused on the logistics of buying from a wholesaler. 

@Garrett BlanchardI like your idea and I think it would be a good niche if you can get past all the government and zoning regulations and logistics.

Your engineers came up with a good technical work-around to the wifi/doorlock issue but it creates some logistical issues.  

One reason is that while the construction costs can increase in more desirable areas (e.g. construction in tight areas like NYC can be a logistical nightmare), the final value of the building can often justify the project cost. 

IMHO do not renew their lease based upon " we are no longer a good fit" as they keep asking which is a time hog and logistics nightmare not to mention financially.Best of luck

If I'm investing 20-40k per month in single-family I'd assume deal flow becomes the bottleneck of the investment engine also the logistics seem like they would get a little muddy whereas investing in multifamily all the doors/management are localized.
