Purchase price: $145,000 Cash invested: $60,000 Finding a move-in-ready home that offers modern upgrades and country charm can be challenging—but this fully renovated 4-5 bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch is the perfect solution.

Lots of opportunity to find mismanaged multis as well where the older mom and pop landlord has rents way below market and can come in and increase NOI just by getting units up to market rent and maybe doing some cosmetic rehabs as tenants move out.Value add multi is what I prefer and think works best here but that's with me being here boots on the ground and being more active with it.

I agree, start local and see if you can find anything that cash flows in your area—it's always easier to manage something close by when you're just starting out.

@Lionel Quiambao I find that the most basic speed offering works fine in my units.

I'm a software engineer on a sabbatical trying to find my path out of the corporate world.Looking forward to connecting!

Or if we'll have to find someone else to assist us.

And if this is illegal in some states...what exactly is illegal about finding interested investors and matching them up with a funding source?

As far as ARV I would find an agent who works with investors to work with you.

Only other initial question I'll leave here is that I'm looking for REI mentors and hope to find a few on BP willing to share a few gold nuggets to those willing to slog it out in the mines the smart or hard way.
