Someone specifically knowledgeable in multi family rentals (2-4 units) for cash flow.

Knowledge is always welcome and I am always open to partnerships and fine tuning my knowledge, as well as offering some of the knowledge I have architecturally and even the real estate strategies i've learned through BP.

However, if you’re looking at an extensive value-add opportunity, then I would certainly advise that you look for a local trusted partner.I can’t speak on Portland or the Pacific NW markets, but I’m sure there is someone that can give you further insight.

Investing is very high-risk, most will fail in real estate primarily due to lack of knowledge.

I think I have enough knowledge to find a deal but would feel more comfortable if I had a mentor to help throughout the whole process. 

It's been a little challenging to find a good realtor who is experienced and knowledgeable while also reliable and motivated enough to return calls/emails personally and consistently, and actively look for properties within my criteria, and go on viewings for or with me instead of passing me on to a "team member".

Excel spreadsheet of the property: this is where your knowledge of the neighborhoods will come into play.

Action > knowledge

Work on knowledge capital and strategies and your credit.

I have extensive real estate, financial, and life experience, but I found a heavy hitter in my market that is letting me work some leads for him.
