When I was getting started, I used both strategies in combination: Strategy #1: Invest as an LP in an experienced operator's multifamily syndicationStrategy #2: Partner with mentors/coaches.

However, hours cannot be combined between spouses to meet the 750-hour requirement.4.

That, combined with a couple other factors, has me confident that it will get the top rent in the area for any multifamily unit!

Forced appreciation combine with rent increases make it a very lucrative strategy. 

Hopefully combining these 2 strategies while enable me to get my first deal done soon.

We're in 5 other markets and all together I spend less than 5 hours a week combined on our other properties.

The deal was financed through a combination of private funds from our Partner Driven capital resources and contributions from our partner, Archie Raglin.

Minimum qualifications that I typically look for with tenants are a 600-620 credit score, need to be making at least 2.5-3x the monthly rent in combined income (verify their employment by making a call/googling), and I don't like to see any previous evictions/certain felonies for background check.

The power of REI in todays market is delayed gratification  combines with the tax benefits the following year. 

Those three tithes combined resulted in an ~23% giving rate not 10%...each is 10% with two of them annually and the third every three years.So all that said, Christians ought to give from the heart (2 Cor. 9:7), regularly (1 Cor 16:2) and if you struggle with the amount pray and consider what is placed upon your heart (James 1:5).
