I want to be able to find potential markets/listings nationally based on the return. 

Start looking for someone near you that you trust and you can partner with on a deal.

This allows the fix & flipper to make a little money upfront, but a lot more at the back end when we reassign the mortgage/deed of trust back to them.

of the "great photo" examples having calendars that are wiiiiiiide open, with barely a booking on them.Fair enough, I pulled these from first page results of nation wide searches (it was skewed SE for me because I mainly look in those areas) so they obviously rank very high on the algorithm.

Here’s how to find a broker you can trust:Ask for Referrals: Reach out to fellow investors or real estate agents for recommendations.Check Credentials: Look for brokers who are licensed and members of professional organizations, such as the National Association of Mortgage Brokers (NAMB).Review Their Track Record: Ask about their experience with real estate investment loans and request client testimonials.Interview Multiple Brokers: Prepare questions about their lender network, fees, and typical loan turnaround times.Evaluate Their Communication: Choose someone who listens to your needs and provides clear, honest advice.4.

Working this backwards, what I see is a 3rd party trying to benefit from another’s house via rental cashflow, My only business is 30+ years as probate estate and trust lending in CA.

Network StrategicallyReal Estate Meetups: Attend networking events to meet potential partners, mentors, or funders.Professional Organizations: Join groups like the Urban Land Institute (ULI) or the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) to connect with developers and investors.Pitch Events: Look for events that allow you to pitch your idea to angel investors or venture capitalists.5.

Don’t focus on buying or selling right away—just connect and build trust.Both brokers and sellers prefer doing business with those they know and trust.

- If so, 1031 into something bigger and easier to manage and then when you pass, the inheritor receives your property(s) at a stepped up basis - subject to Inheritance Tax limits.Otherwise, sell one every 1-5 years when you need the cash, so you can plan expenses to offset capital gains.14 properties - presume these had to have been single families.Oh, I'm modifying the original post to mention leaning toward creating a trust which we manage..so we would own very little yet manage the trust which owned investments and such.Here is what I understand/misunderstand (better or worse) on moving every 2 years (as we are open to that albeit pia.) • Multi-unit would only support a %, so a quad would 25% and prorated over all years of ownership....witteling advantage to not worth the effort. • Single unit properties get pro-rated.

No question is too silly, trust me, I’ve asked them all.
