We've even discussed purchasing and living in a property that we would then later turn into a rental while we work on figuring out our first steps.I came across this site researching a "coaching" advertisement and it looked like a great and diverse community.

Realistically bring it to the attention ("wholesale") of  someone with the resources and experience to do something with it.

Welcome to the site @Adam Bonsall .

I'm sure you'll find an immense resource of networking and information to help you achieve your goals!  

Hey @Terrence Thomas, welcome to the site!

Hello all, I'm fairly new to this site and very new to REI in general.

I love this site and have learned so much already.

Julie I get it I have owned 3 sizeable HML companies in my day.. and done well over 2,500 transaction as the owner principal of the company.. and I have done them every which way.from no money.. to needing money.. to equity share etc etc.. end of the day its the character and capacity of the flipper that is paramount.tough thing right now for most is finding deals that meet the LTC ratios that make 100% funding even remotely safe. however you are new to BP I see and generally speaking this is a beginners site..

They will both cash flow a bit, but were both purchased at close to fair market value. for my next house I would like to either find a Multifamily; no more than a fourplex to house hack for a bit, or find a house on the Outer Banks of NC that is a single family, that has either a in-law unit or room to build one and have a vacation rental on site.

Most cities don't allow them.Also, as far as how to search by address on the assesor's site, go to the assesor's site, scroll down, and below "Most Popular", the first link says "find a property."
