Specifically in the price range above 300K.

@John Arendsen, if I understand your posting, you're looking to invest in crowdfunding sites, but not as a typical investor but as someone who sits on the board.There are about 20 sites that I would consider to be investment quality, and the remaining 80+ are fairly poor for one reason or another (in sufficient volume, none of experience, poor investor protection, etc.). 

Looking between the 1,200-1,400 range for monthly rent.

I planning to buy a property that is out of my monthly price range by about 1500 to 1700.

Hi guysI am looking for a office building in the 600 to 1000 sq ft range with a 10 car parking area, close to I 10

Have your guy pound the phones and call the commercial leasing brokers in a 25 mile range area.

While spending the money probably isn't in the best use of funds for a property in this price range an actual video tour may help.

So townhouse/row houses are pretty much the only game in that neighborhood and those townhomes can go for something in the $300-$600K range.

I had to look for over 9 months.One thing to keep in mind if you decide to go the FHA triplex or fourplex route is the self-sufficiency rule, which states that 75% or 85% (depending on which state you're in) of the market rents on all units (including the one you will occupy) need to cover your monthly payment (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and mortgage insurance).

Additionally, the property would make an excellent flip with retail values in the $140k-$190k range in the area.
