You could have 2 or 3 investors or 50 or even 100 form a mortgage brokerage and hire a licensened MO.

I did not form a legal entity or LLC as a property management entity, or for the first property.

I think it is important for investors to form a relationship with a lender who understands their business model and can help them as they grow their real estate portfolio.

I could tell they were knew reading form a script.. so its those that have no real training that can foul up a seller pretty good.. and that is what those of us in the industry and are licensed do not like to see

There are no "actuals" only a pro-forma analysis, the deal has been around for 2 years, etc.  

Don't buy in pro forma or presumed appreciation, buy in actuals!

We've included our pro-forma reflecting the anticipated timing of the upgrades and resulting rent increases for the upgrade program <link to pro-forma>.Our dog park is complete.

Should I budget for property taxes to be higher than what the previous owner is showing on their pro forma assuming I am buying the property at a higher price than the current assed value listed by the county?

Always watch out for people that throw around a lot of pro-forma estimates and can't back up the figures they use with actual data.

Other than that, you had to find my classes through word of mouth.There were probably 500 students that came in and out of the program.I would say 70% were Male, 30% Female.Because the Math was very intense and became more and more sophisticated, eventually learning how to put together a 10 year pro-forma business plan with an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) calculation, of the 500 students, approximately 470 dropped out before the end of a full program cycle.Of the remaining students, approximately 30 that made it all the way to the end of the program, the best student, a 44 year old Female, not Married and no Children, whom I will just call Student M, made a killing.Student M partnered with her brother, who never attended class.
