I'd be surprised if the complex doesn't have individually metered units so you may be able to eliminate the utility expenses unless those are for common areas like walk ways, parking lot or laundry.

Very unlikely unless you find a private lender/individual to do this as a one-off. 

I'm currently building up capital for future ventures and properties that I find on market, as well as attempting to find the best brokerage where I can work under an individual who is already more established.

Well I've never really thought if they appreciate it on an individual level or not.Some do say thank you, some do not. 

I’m especially interested in residential rentals, STR's, or multifamily properties, but I’m open to exploring other areas as well.I’m here to connect with like-minded individuals, gain insights from experienced investors, and contribute however I can to this community.

If you are in the CLT area and are looking to connect with othr like-minded individuals, I would love to grab a coffee with you!

I will kindly ask anyone if you have any questions please schedule a call with me and it will be a pleasure to help each of you individually. 

So I said all of that to say... lol, Yes, I think you can absolutely find a PM that would help answer some questions, and I hope you find some kind individuals. :-) All the best!  

Like you, I’m diving into books and podcasts, but I also believe there’s immense value in learning alongside others and gaining hands-on experience.I’m in the process of connecting with like-minded individuals to create a community of new investors who are eager to learn, share knowledge, and even collaborate on deals.

All too often I have observed individuals raid their retirement accounts, paying far too much in taxes.
