My goal is to do the same (purchase 1 a year) after we have our one, get our foot in the door of real estate and figure out all our processes.

Another great way to get your foot into the door of multifamily is becoming a limited partner on larger multifamily syndication.

My point being, if possible, find a partner(s) who does have sufficient savings so you can get your foot in the door so to speak.

Typically $1.69 a square foot although we once purchased 5000 square feet of the stuff for 99 cents a square foot during a Black Friday sale

I cant seem to find much info anywhere on this other than some people talking about a full gut rehab costing 200 a foot. 

Not because YOU didn't see on means it doesn't exist.Now consider this:To disprove your claim that a big foot doesn't exist, ALL I have to do is show ONE bigfoot and you are wrong..I just need to show you ONE case scenario where your claim doesn't hold and your entire claim is wrong.So in other words, your statement being:is factually and mathematically wrong, no matter what you say think or what your opinion is, because PLENTY of people, me included wholesale deals successfully without having a specific buyer lined up already.

I'm looking for anything that will get my foot in the door or simply just be some better experience than just reading books and listening to the BP Podcast.I know that the podcast talks about finding someone I can bring value to but I'm feeling kind of lost.

Just purchased a completely vacant 3 story, 23K sq foot retail/office building on the edge of a decent downtown area in a medium sized city.We are going to rehab the whole thing but still undecided about an elevator.

A few years back there were silly deals - I was buying smaller 15 cubic foot fridges for around $250 each.

First a little background:I'm a 32 year old Nashville native and purchased my first home here back in October of 2014, a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom 1275 square foot ranch.
