I also want to make sure w seller financing there is an online dashboard i can log in at escrow or title company to track the loan paydown and monthly payments like w any mortgage bank.. did not see that on forums.

I have just started in a 3-day training for the Lee Arnold broker certification program and thus far just completed the online material required for preparation. 

(we charge the same Processing Fee as depositing to our bank)4) Pay online using their tenant portal (we absorb the small fee, to encourage this behavior as the internal resources saved more than cover that fee)We understand we have scales of efficiency a DIY landlord won't.

@John Lasher If you are still looking to spend $20k-$30K for a coach, I would be happy to take you up on that offer :) For full disclosure,  I will share with you precisely what you can learn online/ perhaps even entirely through these BiggerPockets Forums but that doesn't address the reason why most are still unable to purchase larger assets: creditworthiness and capital relationships.

One tenant is behind on rent and has still not paid December rent.I’m seeing mixed things online but looks like I have to file something by the 31st?

The best way to connect and learn is to be in rooms where it's going down.In terms of captial your best bet is to focus on a primary income that cash flow sufficiently, saving as much as you can and doing something real estate related so you can get familiar with the industry.

From there, you can research through zillow/redfin whatever but your best bet would be to find an investor/agent (I a one but based in Fort Lauderdale) who can guide you through the process.

It is a complimentary strategy to pull some of your money back and hedge your bet. 

Tax shelter schemes, partnerships with foreign partners and accounts, partnerships with hundreds of members, returns with blatant mistakes, entities in questionable businesses, like gambling, drugs, online video sales, escort services.

Best bet though is a local community business bank..
