While most people have family and friends to ask for start up money, me, not so much.

Or are they included elsewhere as a business expense or startup expense?

We know that we can easily and quickly rent the homes out for $600-$700/month, but instead of renting to a tenant, we have an idea that might help out the right person (who does not have start up cash) to get started in real estate investing and I'm looking for advice on whether or not to go forward with it. 

I am not eligible for a conventional loan as I am working for a start-up company and will not be approved for a mortgage.My thinking is to seek owner financing,negotiate mortgage directly with owner, and put up to 50k down for first property.Am I going in the right direction seeking financing directly with owner or do I have any other options in my current position?

Any owner/occupant home purchase and business start ups are others.

With that we also have a growing city with lots of startup setting up shop here or moving back to Lincoln with the huge startup community.

@Russell Brazil I agree that the market couldn't likely support many different cloud brokerages, I'm sure like any startup they barely stayed alive with the first few hundred agents.

Well I want to get started the right way so I started up my LLC and getting all my stuff tagged along for Oregon.I searched for Oregon LLC / LLC Oregon to see if anyone had posted their "start up procedures for getting into real estate in Oregon.I think I might share my start up experience and where I went so I think i'll be making notes and putting together another post so anyone in the future, looking to get into real estate can see my process and what I did and any issues that took place or steps I swapped around.Thanks everyone!
