Quote from @Roland Stone: Anyone on here get on board with Anderson Business Advisors?

Your financial background is a huge asset, and it’s great that you’re starting locally in Milwaukee while keeping an eye on future expansion.If you’re looking to connect with like-minded investors, the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin is a fantastic resource for networking with rental portfolio owners, accessing legal resources, and finding contractors. https://www.aasew.org/For mentors, funding sources, and flippers, the Milwaukee REIA is another great group to explore. https://www.milwaukeereia.com/I’m a member of both and find unique value in each—maybe we’ll cross paths at a future meeting!

My client has a property near the hospital where he runs his dental practice and has 6 hospitality units connected on the other end.

It can certainly be done, but I'd recommend having a solid contractor on your team and holding a fair amount in reserves.
