With this approach....My 5 year goal is to aquire 100 units under this model which will hopefully cash flow: 100 units x $100/ unit per month= $10,000/mo NET PROFIT which is a 6figure income and will allow my wife and I to retire from our jobs and both do real estate full time....if I meet my goals then that would be an early retirement from a JOB at only 34. 

I had no agent of course in my sale, but it could be an option. 

I used to be an active GC and I wouldn’t partner with someone I didn’t know off the street.

I’ve also hear grant cardone say this & also say don’t shop for real estate based on your budget.I have about 30k i’m comfortable investing eith right now.My area is relatively cheap so I can buy a single family for 45k. 20% down and rent it for $700-$800.Any suggestions would be great.Did Grant Cardone sit one-on-one with you over cup of coffee, looked at your situation and provide you with a tailor made advice?

@Jessica WoodIf the water leak is considered to be an emergency, then why not do this:1) turn off the water to the entire house.

My brokerage will be an LLC in Texas.

That might definitely be an option.

Condition can often be an issue.

,You are right there are lenders that will do 90% LTV on triplex/fourplex loans in Long Beach but it will have to be an owner occupied property.

@Jeneé MurphyIf you are considering hard money then refi in 6 months it must be an amazing deal to pay that high of an interest rate plus fees..Cap Rates vary by location and are usually considered on properties with over I would say 10 units..
