I'll have to look into other strageties untill I have the money avaiable for a deal that I can use to transition from my day job into

After you get educated "assuming you want to go buy larger apartment complexes", I would suggest investing passively with a high-end operator to see a deal in real-time develop and transition.

It's hard to stand out.There are some new owner-occupied segments with people who share motivating factors for selling their home.Seniors with Long-time Ownership: often ready to downsize or transition to assistance.Homeowners with Low Financial Stability Scores (FSS): Struggling financially and likely ready to cash in on their asset.Both these categories have additional advantages in that they probably don’t haven’t been updated and may have deferred maintenance.

If things look good, eventually we'll transition to full time.  

The returns are crazy when you put it all together.Not only does it help you build wealth, but it is a great transition into becoming a real estate investor/landlord.

Just a few things for you to think about...Some neighborhoods that seem below average standards are actually up and coming, going through transitions and being upgraded, sometimes one property at a time by investors like you, due to sheer suppy and demand.

Can anyone share some advice on how I can transition into a company solely for personal investing?

No info on how the transition takes place, what the hurdles are during the 5 year period, repositioning targets, etc..The one thing all of these post have in common is they mention the number of doors on deals and never mention actual Net cash flow dollars, profit amounts per door, or deal strategy, some will post Gross dollars per door but that has zero value for any real insight in my opinion, we all know it's not how much you make it's how much you keep.In my interactions with wealthy Real Estate investors, when talking about multifamily apartment deals, they discuss acquisition goals and projections in dollar value and/or IRR not the number of doors as the highlight of the deal.I’d like to ask if the BP community will help change this Guru imbedded mindset about the number of Doors being the measurement of success.

I have PMs in place on other properties, but they specialize more in larger apartment complexes and haven't done a stellar job transitioning to duplexes. 

My objective is to rehaband flip my first few deals to build capital and then transition to holding properties.
