I would like to learn about analyzing, purchasing and managing larger Multi Families and or Apartment complexes.Can anyone recommend any self learning books or courses...preferable audio format....that I can study to get my feet wet.Thanks in advance

I am also a professional in the financial services industry, advising large real estate development clients on various insurance and risk management related matters. 

What about liquidity?

I am investing in rural areas of western NC and there are not many cookie cutter homes/developments so the 200K selling prices is based on a larger search area. 

I boarded up the home and fenced off the lot for safety, but made no other improvements to the land.The strategy and patience paid off last month with a sale to a developer who also purchased a larger, adjoining piece of land.My cost for the property, including taxes and other holding costs was a total of just under 70K.

Here is the latest example of a neighborhood of local residence protesting in front of a 6 thousand square feet hour house that just had $350,000 in renovations three years ago and will be town down for a larger home to be built.

I have been successful in the past sourcing deals on and off market, I am building my network of brokers larger each week, but I am looking to find new ways to get deals.  

I already own some property, my partner does not, but he has about twice the liquid capital that I do.

or 2) Partner with someone working a larger deal.

Now its no longer just a cash purchase with liquid capital so you shouldn't use the traditional calculations or formulas for basic cash purchases.
