Build a local network and stay organized to do deals remotely.

Your traditional bank in most instances is going to take the loan and resell it on the secondary market.For House Hacking, my favorite concept is  purchasing a duplex, triplex or quadplex, you accomplish 2 things in 1 step, you get a roof over your head, and at a minimum you get someone else to help pay for your mortgage, and when its time to move out, you already have your 1st investment property under your belt.

That way you at least have full control of the operation and *may* be able to resell the mini home whenever you decide to exit. 

You and him can do the work yourselves and resell it.

I recently connected with a gal through a BP meetup and want to try and organize a partnership.

Feel free to inquire about their staff qualifications if it's a larger organization.2.

We need to get more involved and get better organized at pushing our agenda. 

Assuming these are legitimate offices, this seems like a good size organization.

Although we are seeing some push from tenant organizations in Madison and some extent also in Milwaukee, we are generally considered one of the most landlord-friendly States in the US. 

Are you great at organizing and maybe you'd be a good fit at a mortgage brokerage?
