Lord knows there are a lot of fancy, online GP's now with beautiful websites, YouTube channels, and 10 people in their investor relations department but only 1 inexperienced guy in their acquisitions who couldn't underwrite a lemonade stand.good luck :)

I have a strong network here and know the key players/stakeholders in the community and am trying to learn how I can get involved to make an impact to change the community and restore the existing (beautiful) infrastructure. 

Commercial PML will do the same, they'll have the credit and b.g. inquiry.You mean a true Private Individual with capital for lending? 

Notes selling for $35-40k had true house values to a buyer at $10-15k.  

The higher the risk the better the return...and at some point you have to watch out for "too good to be true."

Many investors choose a profit-sharing model for true equity partners, often splitting profits 50/50 or based on the level of their contribution to the deal, but ensure everything is clearly defined in writing to avoid misunderstanding/miscommunication. 

If someone posts something negative about me that is not true and I request them to retract it and they do not, they will be getting sued for enough that they will never consider doing it again.  

For guests, if it checks the "W/D" box then whatever fits will be fine, I don't think there is a true minimum.

But 3) Try multifamily specific brokers, crexi and loopnet, although 2-4 units maybe scarce. 4) A home equity line of credit is a good source of funds however it will generally make your overall monthly payments higher, so unless a deal is very solidly cashflowing, a HELOC may put you into negative cashflow. 7) Typically electric/gas are paid by the tenant - however this isn't true across the board. 

Again MAY be true.
