Look at quality properties (not something that is cheap and looks good on paper). 

Other introverts will feel comfortable with you and that could actually help your journey......more important qualities are honesty, integrity and being a harder worker than others.Just be yourself and go get started.

The one I am speaking with currently has not offered up any sort of contract so I am taking the lead on preparing something.  

Here's some basic copy & paste info that may help you make better investing decisions:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

So I'm not trying to bash the market there, just speaking in broad generalities and of my own opinion.

Any MF of the quality and size (50 up) I would have been interested in would have been cash flow negative for the next 5 years or so, even with 30% down.

We charge 10% and we pride ourselves on quality service.

-Have an extra umbrella policy-Speak with my real estate attorney to make sure I did enough to limit my liability. 

Thinking you can identify scammers by speaking to them or reading reviews is naïve.

When you say "we," are you speaking about your business or your personal tax returns, or does your business flow into your personal returns because you file as a sole proprietor?
