[b]On to stuff that led me here:[/b]I recently read, "The Millionaire Next Door."

The best ways to find deals are:1. bandit signs2. letters3. door knocking 4. networking like crazy (everyone should know that you are the "subject-to" guy, or the "lease option" guy.

Mind you I'm in the Los Angeles market so it would be different than some other areas.When hunting the NOT listings for upcoming sales hoping to find a door I can knock on, I would like to narrow down the number of doors that are to be knocked.

We also have 1 detached garage that came with one of our apartment buildings and rent it out separately.For the first go around (first garage tenant) we took our apartment lease and crossed out some stuff and used it.

Ya know with multi-family the person next door will hopefully rat out people that are throwing parties because of the noise.

Nice job avoiding the soap box grandwally, seems like we all have to tread lightly on that subject.To answer the question, most experienced investors do shoot for a minimum of $100 per month, per door in cash flow.

Since the 70's our "economy" has consisted of running a national garage sale.

We do a fair amount of multifamily too (mainly larger complexes), and have found expenses on smaller complexes (10-50) can be quite a bit higher per door and are often under-reported by sellers and management companies.

Thank you for all your help, as I think this will pay off in the long run..I forgot to mention this place I am tring to get later this month that comes with the tenant also has a over size 3 car block garage behind it..

Starting at just $40k per door.
