I don't know your criteria for a good deal, but if you're strictly looking on market for a quad in Raleigh you likely won't find one in the near future that meets what you're looking for.

Starting out, I would like to focus on small multifamily (2-4 units) and then scale into larger investments. 

To "soften" or reach a compromised we agreed to ONLY have $30K of the $60K in funds be considered "OPTION CONSIDERATION" funds (giving us the EXCLUSIVE RIGHT to buy the property at the $300K Purchase price) and the OTHER $30K of funds would be STILL be given to them but we informed them that it likely will be consider TAXABLE INCOME to them.

Marketing Strategies -Hope everyone is doing well, I have a (quick) question to ask !

I would like to stay in an area I'm familiar with until I get comfortable with the entire process.

I am assuming 10% vacancy, 10% repairs.A couple things just came up during inspection and I will likely try to get a lower price but I don't think I will be able to get it.Should I just go for it anyways? 

Does anyone have any good experiances with sites like "propwire" or "deal machine" or any other intelligent skip tracing sites like these that you would suggest?

I’m here to learn and start my REI journey while hopefully meeting some like minded people along the way. 

Sounds like a JV agreement and then hold title with a lien maybe?
