@Kyle Scholnick  one of the reasons you don't hear in mainstream these other types of investment ( save crowdfunding ) is the government hamstrings them on marketing..

You are trying to run a 100m dash with no training right now and will surely pull a hamstring out of the gates with your current strategy.

The government will and they are allowing less autonomy every day in how things run.In my opinion the regulatory rat's-nest has been just another tool used to hamstring small business and empower the corporate consolidations.     

If they are going to sell off it has to fit certain criteria to move the loan which can hamstring things sometimes.

I just joined back up with my tour after being off with an injury (torn hamstring) for three months.

As I'm very green in this area I don't want to hamstring myself.

I'm trying to figure out a timeline for myself, on a meager 38K income, to get the ball rolling for buy & hold rentals but don't want to hamstring myself when the inevitable unforeseen expenses occur.

That means I can't use these loans to make cash offers which severely hamstrings my ability to make discounted offers.

try to do that with HML.. its hard,  you need money for each deal so many folks even though they only look at what's in it for them.. they hamstring themselves because they really don't know the value of a true  capital partner... so they just trundle along doing 2 or 3 a year and keep searching for the unicorn investor ..

I already do this with my home in Melbourne to a degree.Frankly, I'm stuck on where to start, how to start, how to find the right people to be on my team, what I can do with the equity and cashflow that I currently have, and how not to hamstring myself from being able to build the next deal.
