I think the ins and outs of the loan are all heavily influenced by your particular 401k account rules, but if it is administered through one of the larger 401k administrators then it should be a relative breeze for you from what I understand.

You can buy 10 4 unit buildings using government sponsored 30 year fixed rate loans at 4 % or 4 10 units at 20 year variable rate loans at 5%.Having said that, if it were me, I would not let that influence me much.

The best place to start for this is to go out to your centers of influence and let them know about the investment opportunities that you have.

I like when the numbers work for multiple strategies so I don't back myself into a corner.Deciding which avenue I may pursue at any given time can be influenced by a number of things. 

However perhaps influenced by Tampa and Orlando being right there.Atlanta has a ratio of 486K people for 151 PMs for a ratio of 3.2.Would be interested in your thoughts as active investors in the Indianapolis market.Warm Regards,Richard Olshove

Found it through my own sphere of influence.

The Carnegie book on how to make friends and influence people has great reviews, its a classic.

If the deal ain't right for you walk away - don't be influenced by anyone ---- if it is NOT a good deal - walk - skip or run -----  there will be plenty more deals coming your way.Oh!

The easiest free option is Zillow but depending on your location it may or may not be accurate since it is pretty heavily influenced by listings on Zillow.

I've been a student of Jim Rohn, Napoleon Hill, Nickerson, etc. for the last few years, and I'm always looking to expand my circle of influence with positive and like-minded people.
