Our original hope was to find a 2 family but with a multifamily, it would be 25% down.

I have a duplex that I owner occupy here that works great, however finding a new deal that makes sense is difficult in Madison.I grew up in the Janesville area but really am not familiar with it anymore in regards to the neighborhoods.

In Philly, my current tenant is paying 3x the long term rent through CRS (a temporary housing provider) because he lost his home due to a fire. 

Also in the process of finding a realtor, so if you have any referrals, please send 'em my way!

Would like to find someone that has a positive history rather than going to a rando.

Hire a Architect to provide drawings with a lot of details such as existing house elevations and floor plan, proposed elevations and new floor plan, roof, wood deck, addition, etc.

We love our rentals… but they are providing a great monthly income.

Those are not the only states but they have been a very Hot market lately.You will find a better price to cash flow ratio in those states due to multiple factors. 

Most “Gurus”, authors, advisors and experienced real estate investors preach obtaining seller “carry back” financing for property buyers in order to (1) obtain financing when they don’t qualify for a 3rd party loan (2) obtain financing when the property doesn’t qualify for financing and or (3) extend the “buying power” of their capital contribution (down payment) to purchase a larger more expensive property by having the seller provide a subordinated mortgage loan.That’s all and good, but why should the seller agree to finance the purchase of his property, instead of getting CASH for his equity?
