Why focus on assumable as opposed to working on Sub2 deals? 

One solution I see some people do is to partner with another investor on a couple of deals where each brings something to the table...more capital, experience, etc.

I currently own a 3-unit multifamily property, and I’m actively looking to expand my portfolio while building meaningful connections with like-minded investors in CT.I’m particularly interested in:Wholesalers: If you’ve got off-market deals, I’d love to hear from you.Creative Financing Opportunities: Subject-to deals and seller financing are right up my alley.Networking and Partnerships: I’m eager to collaborate with other investors who share a passion for creative deal-making and scaling our businesses together.Whether you’re an experienced investor, just starting out, or anywhere in between, let’s connect!

I get that Florida is expensive, but flipping out of state for your first deal is a tough way to start.

Spend the $25,000 on a deal not a consultant.

They won't learn those items until they actually do deals. 

Why would anyone want to deal with a subto deal with a rate that is at or above todays interest rate?

There are good deals in all of them

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
