If you know me, I'm not stopping.

One way that I was able to get into my first property was counting 70% of the rental income of the other unit on a duplex.

There is only one listing on market for $24/ft.

Some complaints I've gotten is that my unit only has one bedroom and is small square footage wise.

Not sure their volume its certainly not like Kiavi or lima or one of the big players..

I've torn one down and I've prepped another for demolition, but tearing down houses is crazy expensive.

They all say they will be on the lookout for me, and they are experienced realtors.I did however get one from here, bigger pockets, and this realtor hasn't worked with investors before, butis asking me to sign a contract so I am working with them exclusively.The reason I am asking what to do, is because this realtor with the contract is very new, but I heard that most realtors will ask you to sign one if theyre serious.

One thing to note when getting conventional mortgages and spouses.There is a 10 limit per person for conventional financing.You can either do 10 conventional in each person's name which would be 20 mortgages for 2 people or if you do the mortgages jointly, will only allow 10 in total.My thoughts are not to own joint assets until you are both married. 

I am currently living in one of the units and renting the other one.

One needs to have outstanding local market knowledge to underwrite effectively.
