Thanks all for sharing your experiences! 

The other PM can be a fix-mindset type of person where they are not willing to share anything unless you have a property and are willing to sign a PM agreement in the same conversation. 

Also, I have coached a few agents who wanted to get more heavily into investing and I am happy to share what we found worked easily for them. 

That's a bit different than this situation, but just wanted to share.

@Zach Howard if you're serious, you'll get a Pro Membership so you can access the analysis reports here on BP.You can then share those and ask for feedback:)

Anybody have experience with lenders that will do a mortgage for LLCs in Tennessee and Kentucky?

This coming year set the goal of getting more committed to learn and expand my knowledge to avoid previous mistakes taken as well as to be able to effectively continue to expand my portfolio.I’m here to connect with others who are also passionate about real estate, and I’m eager to learn from your experiences, insights, and advice.

Anyway, I greatly appreciate you taking the time to share from your vast wealth of experience.

That may not apply to you, as a financial professional, but I thought I would share the story.Obiously you could re-lever your portfolio to bring the ROE back up, but then you have to place those borrowed funds somewhere that nets a high enough return that the portfolio is ahead, given the drag of the interest and any transaction fees.
