While I've been involved in multifamily buildings in the past, I'm new to the commercial office/retail space, but am currently looking to purchase a smaller 5-unit property in town.While it's currently fully occupied, I'm always thinking ahead.

Oh, and bleed my ears and eyes out through podcasts and the site for knowledge!

What matters is the present to me, people make mistakes. so go get a job as a laborer, show up in person and look the foreman in the eye.

I get pretty involved myself as I know no one is going to care as much about my properties as I do. 

Investing involves risks and rewards – and usually the higher the risk, the greater the potential for significant gains and losses of invested equity.

If I involved some of those other people's money, how do I even begin to structure a deal like that?

Now, where I come from, an agreement of sale is worthless unless there is no Earnest money deposit involved, is this my money I'm putting up?

What would my involvement need to be?

I’ve uploaded some screenshots of my edits.The last scenario I ran involves a 4.75% down with no PMI.

I am happy to drive for dollars, but that will involve one of those Google self-driving cars and a guide dog trained to sniff out potential deals.
