(The exit strategy is a group Y concentrating on purchase of fixed properties to lease or re-sell)

You are also concentrating on a speciality market, multi family ,which also narrows competition.Also begin compiling a list of properties and find a realtor to show you some property This way yo will get a feel of arv,mv, and how to price repairs etc

Welcome Clint,Are you planning on concentrating in Wi or crossing the border into Minnesota?

If you're are planning on going to college, I would concentrate on paying for it with cash, grants and scholarships.

I do have to agree (which you will hear a lot around here) with @Joel Owens - Get focused, find your niche and concentrate on that to start with.Good Luck - And yes,  Thank you for your Service!  

And an area which will provide a nice cashflow with my budget.I have done abit of research on my end but i keep skipping from cities to cities not knowing where i should concentrate on.

sounds like you are asking a dolphin to climb a tree and wondering why it can't.You have a non-warrantable condo with a serious investor concentration problem, the condo itself may be a dog being a 1/1, with that many investors, the HOA may be in trouble financially and it may be a bit run down affecting value.A local bank and most brokers will not be able to get this done.  

Not all states require this mind you but many do.. and I see many non licensed companies advertising they will do fix and flip in Oregon and I know they are not licensed to do so but they still advertise they will lend here.So licencing... is one.. web site is another if the info current etc.. but if I was looking for money in a certain market I would concentrate on locals... and start there .. you can atleast meet with them.In the day I was lending I was the largest HML in Mississippi of all places but my offices were in Oregon.. so I can see how someone would wonder what the heck I was doing there..

We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.Tony RobbinsInspirational, Change, WishOne reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power.

I am retired military and have just retired from my W2 position to concentrate on real estate.
