Whenever I read investor posts about unit count goals and utilizing section 8 rentals as the vehicle to scale a portfolio it loosely translates to buying real estate without paying attention to the fundamentals in the markets where they invest.

Hello Everyone,I'm an X fix and flip guy who's looking to get back into the real estate market.

You can get significant savings for legal and compliance costs in addition to providing one PPM and one K-1 to your investors regardless of how many deals they invest in. 

I am in CA and would like to get into the MidWest (MO) market.

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

I can't imagine that the "deals" are on the market or even on wholesale since the owner doesn't want to sell.

Depends on your market.

Its similar to say I am taking $150k in equity to go start a marketing business or a restaurant?

This market will either continue as it has been and cash flow will be easy in 3years.  

VRBO's Market Maker tool is awesome for this.
