Hi, I'm interested to hear some recommendations on what people think is the most effective method for acquiring a seller financing deal on a commercial sized property (5+ unites) in the Jacksconville, FL area.

This could be an easier and cheaper solution than hiring someone full time.If you are just looking for someone to answer the phone and contact your list of contractors, I'd suggest looking into the "virtual assistants" that are featured heavily on Bigger Pockets podcasts as this seems to be a very cost effective way to manage the day to day without putting in much money. 

-You should factor in at least 8.3% vacancy (effectively 1/12 aka one month out of the year) and potentially 16% if you intend to have a property manager place a tenant because they will take a month's rent as commission.

Regions including Cleveland, Dayton, Knoxville and Pittsburgh are also more likely to see bigger effects from the Silver Tsunami.

You need a track record in order to be able to effectively raise capital.

I can see the abatement being good for the short term but I’m wondering how it will affect or not effect for the long term 10+ years.

I was wondering how I should create a probate list .I understand that I should go to the court house, but what is the most effective criteria for my search ?

I like the idea of stacking information to make our decisions more effective. 

In effect trying to over value the home to the bank as they were qualified for quite some amount so long as they had 20-25% down.

They could care less about the effect on appeal but do care that they live in a space that is more sustainable and supports renewable energy.
