Like a incubator where I would be like the angel investor where I will offer the space maybe a little seed money then enjoy a percent of the sales.

So, I have been looking at ways to wholesale properties to get that initial seed money.

The issue lies in the fact that REI's (real estate investors) tend to claim and write off a lot when it comes to tax time so after they purchase a property they came their rental in a manner which actually makes DTI worst often times.A well formulated loan approval and mortgage plan can take a lot of risk out of investing especially if you're using BRRR - buy-renovate-refi-repeat with hard money, private money, are trying to cash out to obtain your seed capital again, and or are looking to ensure a smooth exit strategy.I always recommend multiple exit strategies to mitigate investor/borrower risk.Hope that helps.

Ideas to seed your thinking:- On Point Property Management- Reliable Property Management- One Stop Property Management- Done Right Property ManagementJust a few ideas...  

For me, I love the idea of taking equity out of your primary residence using a cash out refi (30 year, fixed term) and using that seed capital to grow with rentals using the BRRRR strategy.

Yellow letters are great also I have heard if you can link up with a agent for the pre-foreclosure list and work out a co-broke deal its helpful for starting out, a good Agent is very helpful, having a good team is important in building good business relationships and one simple seed to use business cards....Lots of Luck to you

I've tried planting the seed of having her ask for a HELOC for the sake of helping me buy my first triple-decker (what we in Boston call a three-family) or at least a two-family in the Boston area.

You are gathering names for which you will plant seeds and harvest later.Since you probably don't know how to read files efficiently (yet), you need to become familiar with the terminology and understand the relationships between parties.

So many times you are suggested 20 ways to build a buyer's list Which are going to give you the real buyers with the least effort With the market conditions in such shady conditions I would say go 80/20Do the highest value activities first but bust your a$$, and do the rest of the top 80%Plant your seeds everywhere....And a strong harvest is sure to follow.

But you know what...I planted the seed of interest and one never knows.
