Said I needed a multi family agreement.

Secondly, I would shop lenders using the Find a Lender function on BP.

Sean,I have had some good exposure to larger commercial/industrial deals but would like to start investing on my own for small multi family properties, ultimately end goal is to build a portfolio that can someday support my retirement, provide flexibility for my family, and create something that I can work on with my kids to show them the power of real estate and entrepreneurship and hopefully someday pass down to them. 

In the process on meeting with 2-3 now to choose who to work with.

Even if your town or jurisdiction has regulations, the HOA can choose to pass rules that are more restrictive.

My wife and I are thinking about doing mid term rentals so a buy and hold strategy may be the path we choose.

Need some feedback and /or contacts who can help me with investments in / around Worcester Polytechnic (WPI) ...

I have heard of instances where one (the borrower) is allowed to choose the appraisal company or put in a recommendation for one which the institutional bank may honor, and then the person already knows someone there, that they have gotten to know with time from other projects, and it's not unnaturally inflating value but favoring a good one to keep the reoccurring client.  

For a multi member LLC regarded as a partnership, it’s also a pass thru entity.
