At my prime... when I was doing it before semi retiring, I was doing 75 transactions a year. 

As a multifamily appraiser, I am trying to think outside the box and come up with a service for multifamily owners (most likely targeting properties with 20 units or more).A current idea I have is to provide a "value monitoring system" that would initially provide a complete "as is" appraisal, then keep an owner informed of their property's position in the market on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.

Interested in doing a split percentage semi spec house on my lot.

For years I have watched without investing in real estate, and now that I have semi-retired from business I can take the time to learn and get started with my 'encore career'.  

., which has all been great, however, we have a problem:The current owner treated the BNB as a semi-retirement job, and did not keep good records in regards to the previous stays... many were cash paying guests and were not recorded at all... this has forced her to have to sell the property as a residence, and is making it difficult for us to finance through regular channels.  

I was told by a semis trustworthy source that they will give me a sherrif eviction and I can go in and take whatever I want.

:)  You should also look into the Boston Area REIA in Medford, should be semi convenient to work and home.  

This way the investors make monthly or semi annual dividends for a fixed term.

Private, or "semi private" will have lower rates, longer terms, and I don't know how hard they look at DTI, or what their varying ratios might be.

Buy and hold for long term wealth building and a semi passive income stream.Rehabbing is another active business that is great for capital building and income, but that income stops the moment you stop.
