This could include relisting a flip property with them, even if you relist at a discount.I would consider asking this question of the seller - "Are you willing to pay an agent half of a six percent listing commission to write the contracts and professionally assist in facilitating this transaction?".

I can buy/rehab/rent a SFH in just a couple/few months versus it may take a year for a larger property to get each unit upgraded and re-rented for a higher price.My 71 unit I purchased though, while there is some value add, I don't see it being something I refinance right away unless I goto the Freddie Mac small business loan program.Freddie/Fannie have a built in "supplemental loan" feature that facilitates getting the cash out. 

I would like to eventually build up a sizeable portfolio of rental units, I figured maybe I can get more units on my first deal if I can find some private money to help facilitate the purchase.

I have a wide net of connections in the area as I help facilitate one of the local investor meetups.

@Deanne BourneI belong with a group of owners who use an easy service to help out and facilitate bookings reservations and maintenance issues for just short periods to help for this exact reason.

I think he is ultimately targeting 42 units, but still same problem of scale.Find a local PM that has offices nearby, I think that will be the only way to facilitate frequent visits.

I have come across a few companies in Memphis that facilitate the BRRRR process for you, they call themselves the turnkey alternative.   

Users are able to attribute more value to the building given its facilitating their business operations.You should also pay close attention to the lease rates for both properties, if your telling us they are not worth the same vacant my gut says they are leased at above market rates.

There is also a good lender connected to all parties to help facilitate.

I recently facilitated construction on a 13 unit condominium project in the Bozeman area.
