I want to cut my teeth solo if possible before risking other peoples money.

@Alex Meneses I don’t know of a conforming loan that will allow you to close in LLC whatsoever. 

But realtors should know and feel safe charging the full 6 points to the sale, because its like pulling teeth to make consumers understand the true gravity of such a Massive "Tax Free" Equity Savings this can be!

If you use the site reonomy.com (I don't have any affiliation with them whatsoever), they do provide all the information you are looking for and more.

Also, it might be a good way to "cut your teeth" in this industry.The other thing to consider is that your time is worth a certain amount of money. 

Hi William, Milwaukee is a pretty interesting market; certain parts are great to invest for long term wealth, some are growing, some are redevelopeing, other parts are cheap and perfect if you are looking to cut your teeth on some issues.

It's called strict liability and it's what gives the MA lead paint laws such big teeth. 

I’m trying to sink my teeth in on my first investment property but had an issue trying to secure a loan on a SMF.

I halfway expect them to be camped out around my PO Box, hiding in my bushes, showing up in the shower while I'm brushing my teeth, chasing me around like some sort of broke ghost. 

Their portion of the rent was less than $50 and it was pulling teeth to get them to pay.
