Ideally you would find a company that has everything under one roof.

Reasoning is that my market isn't ideal for flips and I want other options for my clients.

The goal is to ideally add 1 bedroom and 1 full bath.

There are a lot of opinions and ideas out there...I'd like to hear from fellow BP'ers.If you (as an investor) were developing the 'ideal' servicing options for NPN's, PN's and seller carry back transactions...what would that service include?

I forgot to mention that my ideal goal would be to start in fix and flip or house hacking a duplex/triplex/quadplex.

Ideally I would use an FHA 203k loan to move on something, contract the renovation and live in the property for a few years then down the road turn it into an investment. 

Especially since you're investing out of the area you live in, you'll want an agent who has a strong network of tradespeople, property managers, lenders, title companies and ideally, one who is well connected in the investor community and can bring you off market deals from time to time.I wish you all the best!

In theory, under ideal circumstances, you could get 10 and your spouse could get 10.

I'm looking to buy and hold for the long run, ideally pay them off as fast as possible.

My question is how do I identify an ideal vacant property and how can I gain more leads?
