Hi,What are my options to buy a 2nd investment multi family home with little to no money down?

While I currently live in the Brandon area, I'd like to buy and move into a duplex / multi-unit property in Tampa or near downtown St.

I want to know what i should do to get started on investing in rental multi families.

Can anyone recommend a mortgage broker that specializes in multi family investments 2-4 units in the hudson valley, ny, nj, pa area?

I am a believer in your first deal being a multi- family.

I have mostly invested in Tarrant county (Arlington, HEB, FW) but looking to add a small multi unit in Bishop Arts.

I would lean towards solid multi family homes over single family. 

If someone builds a new multi-unit building that costs X amount and the town in which it is built dictates the rental income for the structure is X - Y then how would someone get approved for the construction loan in the first place?

I have seen folks try for years to find these mythical private lenders and never do a deal because they can't raise a dime.what the OP is looking for is an asset based lender.. and those are not very common anymore.. especially if you have to find one on the internet means you don't have a track record and have little to no chance of finding anyone who is going to 100% your deal.. unless its just such a low LTV that they are making the loan with a better than 50% chance of owning it when the borrower can't pull it off because the borrower is not experienced and can't execute.  

I have a multi and pay $50 per month.
