Then once you figure out how much you have to put down, determine if it makes sense to shop a deal for an equity partner, or seek private lending/HML to fund the deal.

I have been doing a lot of reading and search of my own but will like to hear from anyone with a lot more experience than myself.....Currently seeking to buy 2-4 unit multifamily rental property in Queens, more specifically in Maspeth and Ridgewood areas. 

Also, what line of work will they be seeking and is that something readily available in your area?

But without seeking the advice of those more experienced than I, I risk walking away from a good deal I'm just not knowledgeable enough to make work.Trust me, I'm not going to throw my money away!

Having spent countless hours with start up entrepreneurs, students, professional athletes and spiritual practitioners I know that if you need something I will probably know someone who can help you get there.

I am mainly focused in flipping houses, because I find myself to be detail oriented, professional, punctual, realistic and love the idea of making something "new again."

I'm coming to realize the befits of owning/renting/developing/flipping property and am seeking partners, and advice from trustworthy and like-minded people. 

It's not "professional" but most 20 and 30 somethings use venmo (similar to PayPal).

And Ohio itself has 2 professional baseball and 2 professional football teams, a professional basketball team(Cleveland), THE Ohio State Buckeyes are always a competitive college team in multiple sports.  

What are you seeking to finance?
