Are you still employed by the 401k plan sponsor?

(We are confident in these numbers for rentals these size).

Hard money, HELOC on your primary (if this isn't your primary), friend and family loan, hell even CC depending on size and timeline of rehab/ sell or refi.

One does not need to be a licensed individual if they are leasing properties out for an employer on an hourly or salaried basis.

Hello,I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good strategy for finding good off-market or non-MLS deal flow, particularly in the small-medium size multifamily space.

Illinois/Chicago has high property taxes compared to many mid-sized cities/metro areas. 

If you are a lawyer, they also allow you to take the exam without the 40 hour training since we have to learn property law in our courses and for the bar exam.My former employer would have weekends where he would make money off of the sales from his agents and then do two or three closings at a grand a pop twice a month.He also owned the title company.Very lucrative in Illinois.

I also have a 457 b that I can withdraw as soon as I separate from my employer.

So if you're getting a Walmart size annual NOI and you're getting $12K - 18K in appreciation every year that's not so bad.
