I was drawn to this type of deal because it offered the potential for significant appreciation in a desirable neighborhood.

This information is needed for excess fund research and REO properties.

I got helped of a good amount of start up funds to get started... which gave me insight on a target month to start. 

I typically use regional banks to fund my deals but my 2 go-to banks have either slowed or fully stopped investment loans so recently I've connected with several online brokers but all came from ads or they reached out to me vs personal recommendations and intros so I have concerns. 

Correctly priced, desirable properties stay on the market for only 3-5 days before going under contract.

Another alternative is to create a fund of funds.

I have limited funds so I don't want to start with expensive paid ads right now, but that limits my options.

I have liquid funds ready, but I want to make sure this is worth my time compared to the 5-6% cap rates I've seen on multifamily units in South Florida, which are close to what I already get from CDs and high-yield savings accounts without the hassle of property management.I'm also hesitant to invest out of state since I'm new to real estate and don’t want to make a costly mistake.

Exceptions to your standard business practice do not often end with the desired results.
