Reuben,I don't have an answer, but I feel for you. 

My feeling is that 2500 is way too much and just not competitive, so I wrote the landlord with some comps demonstrating that and asking if he'll keep it at 2250.

Hey @Joshua Ibarra, feel free to reach out.

Feel free to reach out and I can send more info.  

@Cory Bagby- Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about the Milwaukee Market. 

Our plan is to buy the first home in cash, likely $550k-$650k, operate it under management for 3-6 months, then refi to pull out what we feel the property can support for a mortgage so we do not end up upside down. 

I feel sad when I see them stressed out about money all the time.All suggestions are welcomed :)Thank you. 

I feel like it is helpful to add that I am not looking or asking for any compensation for performing the tasks I mentioned above, as well as bringing in my knowledge/experience to benefit both of us to maximize the returns we will get in the future.

Feel free to reach out with any questions.  

It feels like a constant cart before the horse but I have become better at scaling over time, today own and operate 194 units mainly in the manufactured home space but we have more than a dozen single-family homes, a motel, and an apartment complex.I have myself in a CEO position but I also fill the position of sales and acquisitions.
