Quote from @Pradeep Shrestha: I would highly caution against investing in any of Rod Khleif's deals.

@Nicholas A. your shotgun approach has a high probability of getting the exact quality you put into it.95%+ of real estate agent, many of them posting they are "investor-friendly", only know how to deal with owner-occupied transactions. 

Hey @Dalton Foote - I highly suggest  using a renovation loan and house hacking a multi-family if that is possible with your current life circumstances.The 203k and homestyle renovation loans are just amazing products and drastically help you reduce your risk, in my opinion, because you are able to leverage the cost of the entire renovation with such a low down payment loan.We work with a lot of clients who use these products in Chicago, and no matter what, in the long term, they gain great equity.If you aren't able to house hack - the process is essentially the same, but just with more money down with hard money or conventional construction loan.

They are short term loans, usually 6-12 months, high rate, interest only payments. 

I have several opportunities to snag up a self storage complex and a 18 unit apartment complex on creative financing .

I lived in the downstairs unit and rented the upstairs apartment.

She is renting the apartment, not the entire property.It's very important for landlords to understand Landlord-Tenant rights and maintain control of the property.
