I want to have a game plan in action prior to reaching out to lenders. 

That person will be able to tell you what you can do and following that plan will give you peace of mind about your further investing strategy.

I took a break from reading "Money: Master the Game" by Tony Robbins to read all of your hurdles.

Even with HMLs, they would either want to see reserves, or you would still need to put in a little 'skin' into the game to make the deal workGood luck!

This is a numbers game so you may have to take an aggressive approach towards negotiating several deals before one of them actually works out.

@Kris Lou Many factors go into PMC pricing:1) Locality (city/state)2) Neighborhood & Property Class (time to manage Class A < Class B < Class C < Class D)3) Property condition (slumlord properties hard to manage)4) Number of units (some economies of scale, but not as much as owners think)5) Owner expectations (some owners really want a personal assistant!)

REALITY CHECK: THIS BUSINESS IS HARD.Wholesaling and buying houses off-market is a sales game—and sales is brutal.

That’s a different game.

Happy to chat and get a game plan in place for you or answer any other questions you might have.

Love your mindset—real estate is a long game, and you're starting with the right attitude!
