Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

But this could also vary in your market, for example if inventory is so low then buyers may offer to pay your closing costs too. 

I will be charging this RE investment company (again an RE company that I own 50% of) market interest rates.

My pleasure, what type of property are you buying and what market are you buying in?

My coach says to move by the speed of instruction, but I'm not sure if my own market of Sacramento, California is worth spending a lot of time and money in, especially for rental properties.

Also the market and level income (5 miles surrounding the property) is critical and off course the NOI so:I am wondering how you guys evaluate a deal  before investing your money?

I have been looking to up my marketing and extend my reach.

I've primarily worked with investors in this industry in off market acquisitions, now I'm ready to start the journey of becoming one myself:) Cheers to evolving as an investor.

Realtors often think that lenders only "take" without giving back and this is a way to give back to your realtor partners.I also love the idea of cobranding or promoting realtors in different markets.   

To determine if this property is a reasonable first investment, consider financial position, market knowledge, and market research.
