I've made my choice to go with allied but taking the exam prep course with champions.

My Tax person is Miles Lawrence (Lawrence Tax Service). 

 I completley agree with @Lawrence Potts. 1)Talk to a lender first, no one here will be able to tell you if you are able to qualify for that loan.

A bit of a more suburban market would be Lawrence and Perry township.

I've heard some of the only markets to make money in multis still is Lawrence and Haverhill but you would be dealing with c & d class properties.

My buddy and I are really interested in REI and would love to meet up with some people in the KC/Lawrence area and socialize.

There's a history of how these programs came into being and were championed by Paul Smith of the Utah Apartment Association.  

@Lawrence Lloyd paclob - Norfolk is a great city for rentals and a great city to business in.
