@Jessica Heller I do have some ideas on this and it strongly depends on what you are trying to do but I would recommend to take a referral OVER just going out and finding it on your own. 

@Timothy Blackman- thanks  ...get some referrals for lenders from friends / co workers ...contact them all on the same day with the same criteria and ask them any questions you have and  ask for some scenarios ...compare the  feedback and service they provide ...pick one lender to get pre approved with ,,once you have a property - contact all lenders again for pricing options for the actual loan you will need ...hopefully the lender you chose for pre approval will be competitive in their pricing ..good luck

These tend to be in better locations and have better construction.

I collect true financials from every seller or agent I work with that is willing to share them & all of the websites tend to dramatically underestimate in these areas..

Quote from @Emory Clayton: From what I can tell, and my personal experience, you will have to lower standards so the Section 8 applicants can qualify.I'm not a fan of Section 8 because they tend to be far more problematic than tenants that pay their own bills.

People who have more properties tend to eliminate the manager and bring it in house.

I don't know what yours looks like but in my own renting experience, they tended to be on the shorter side.  

Hi all,I've been interviewing, talking with and being disappointed by PM's for my MTR in Kansas city, MO.Does anyone have a referral?

I've noticed that the discounts tend to be pretty decent when compared to the actual cost of renovation (not flipping status, just better in general).3.

Pay for 2 hours consultation time from an attorney experienced in contractor real property law (if you don’t know of an attorney contact me and I will provide a referral) to understand the specific applicable laws, the risks, and potential costs2.
