Get familiar with price points in your market and what looks like a good deal. 

It’s not necessarily more difficult than market-rate rentals, just different.If you’re seriously considering this route, feel free to reach out.

Local REIA groups and meetups (check Meetup.com or BiggerPockets) are excellent for connecting with both new and experienced investors.I’d be happy to grab coffee and chat about the market or share insights.

Then to find inventory, you need to search out, i.e. network, and find out who is creating these type of notes or you help people that may have an interest in seller financing how to create a note that is marketable to the secondary market.

The market is going to go up in the next 5 years.

With market conditions as they are I don't want to be too restrictive.  

Our market is somewhat shifting, but it is still showing signs of thriving, with many opportunities for growth. 

I used a hard money loan to purchase this off market deal.I rehabbed the upper two units within two and a half weeks and have a renter already lined up for one unit.

I'm curious what more experienced investors will leave to finish repairing after they list the property, but before they start to show it (or lease it).I start the marketing about two weeks prior to completion, with an advertised availability date of one week after completion.

I'm actively seeking mentorship from someone with experience in similar markets who can shed more light on this process.
