My first MF I represented the buyer on I made 100k. for maybe a weeks worth of work. 3. if your going to be looking a more resi style duplex 4 plex a lot of those get listed and having access to the MLS is far superior to any other on line listing service ONE simply because you will be able to talk to the actual LIsting agent not someone paying for leads.And then of course having access to MLS lock box's and not relying on agents.. this is huge.Now if your maybe going to buy one property sometime in the future and you have no interest in learning the RE laws of your state or making any money with transactional real estate then sure.. its a pass.. although I would still recommend the pre license course so you learn the basics  the vocabulary and states unique laws.. knowledge is power in RE.

@Venecia BaezHouse hacking is absolutely the best way to get started in RE investing (in my bias opinion). 

Minus re-zoning expenses- Any advise for this transition into low income/transitional housing?

I need some advice from experienced RE investors.We want to buy a 6 bed/ 5 bath in a great area (top zipcode in the area).Thinking of splitting into 2 units but re-zoning permits are almost impossible in area.Ideas of converting to AirBnb or community center?

My other question is what is a good asset protection strategy for RE investments ?

Different RE world.Your brother might only be there 2 years.  

Period.If he keeps playing games, I would a) walk away from the deal, and b) report him to the State RE Board.chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.ncleg.gov/EnactedLegislation/Statutes/PDF/BySect...

Underwrite your RE purchase to long-term rents, so that no matter what, you can cash flow.

Is it possible to re-finance these separate properties as a group in a single loan?
