@Robert Seed@John SemanchukRobert and John,I was actually referencing sourcing the containers from Charleston, but maybe we are onto something in that market.  

I think you need to pass solely on the fact that you're in over your head and need to establish your screening requirements before you go any further. 

I use several sources, including wholesalers, to find properties for my investor clients, and I usually get more good deals off MLS than any other source.Having said that, I always have to pick through a lot of chaff to get to the wheat.

Honestly both are not a good source for leads.

Only other advise would be to talk to at least 3 sources that confirm you can raise the rents and how much before you proceed.Also, don't be afraid to raise the rent.

What are some other sources I could learn from in the next 5 months (specific books, supremely helpful blog posts that I may have missed)?  

Is it a trustworthy source?

For example, I will have 25% interest in a corporation that is purchasing, as its sole asset, an apartment complex.

I reviewed about 4-5 different sources for an application I was developing and it seemed like most of them asked for this information.  

Are you a Hard Money Source that doesn't require financial documentation, Tax Returns, or POF?
