Quote from @Holly Radice: I am looking into purchasing a 4 unit in Ohio as my first property.

Hey Cameron, for experienced investors I can lend up to 100% of the purchase and rehab costs on 1-4 unit properties.

Congratulations on your first purchase.

So, you can do a land contract for 12 months, which should allow lender to credit you full value of the land vs the purchase price, but the loan will pay off the land contract, so the lender maintains first lien position.Can't help you with the rest of your question, but you should be able to search for "CPA" here on BP to find experts to reach out to.

I am considering purchasing in Lower Dimond and any of the directly adjacent neighborhoods.

I don't know if this is for you, but my husband and I have mentored quite a few investors in Canada and helped them purchase their own multifamily. 

Purchase price: $185,000 Cash invested: $35,000 Sale price: $671,000This was our 3rd home.

Quote from @Andrea Lucarelli: I’m interested in beginning my REI career with purchasing a SFH or condo in Cleveland area (safe neighborhood) to list as a furnished rental for travel medical professionals, supply corporate housing needs, or house temporarily displaced families for insurance companies.  

My primary business is owning a wealth management company, and is where I enjoy spending my time.

Quote from @Enrique Toledo: I came across a really good seller financing deal and I would like to purchase it as my first deal but I don’t have enough money for the down payment.can I use a lender of some sort to give me money for the down payment?
