@Michael Fucillo You are not jumping the gun at all.  16 units is still a lot to manage by hand, and getting a system that makes your day to day easier is going to be key to your own sanity. 

In today's world, with the tools we now have, I tell the investors that I work with to invest in the best market and best deal you can.

What action can you do now, TODAY, that moves you even 1 single inch closer to your future? 

What are current loan terms today versus 2 months from now versus in 2 yrs?  

Complaint Filed with the North Carolina Attorney General today.

My biggest client today is a seller I didn’t even represent during his sale of a 24-unit building—he had another agent.

That house you look at today for $750k is now going to be about $780k next year with 4% appreciation. $811k the year after.

Myself I have personally done a few PPMs and funds in my career but am not in the day to day like those two aforementioned.

Because I need cashflow proceeds to start being withdrawn in 2 years and not today, I'm looking for how I can build up the empire with a larger portfolio with continued investments beyond the initial $250k now.  

Guaranteed Returns: A fixed 7% is impressive in today's market and provides predictability unmatched by most investments.2.
