As a new investor I am looking for cashflow and cannot afford negative cashflow as I start out, so I figured I would tackle the seller with the numbers showing how this property is a terrible investment at anything higher than $100k.

The most you should tackle would be for you to be a "general contractor" and hire out the various components on something like a carpet and paint rehab.

@Matt Carey curious what your top 3 things might be and how you tackle that angle with the owners.

It is sharing accurate information to all that read.There are several areas such as this that a Blog or series of articles could tackle very effectively.

I'm currently in the middle of structuring an owner finance deal and after tackling that last issue, this one feels like a cake walk!

Our goal is to equally benefit in the equity return and tackle more properties in the future. 

I recently graduated North Central College in Naperville, IL and am so eager to tackle my 1st multifamily deal.

Also, i am tackling this deal from a no money down perspective because i know if i can get a good deal then the financing will be easy to come by. 

Feels go to take the next step after tackling some big tasks starting out.  

I just don't yet have the funds or experience to tackle it myself, but much desire!
