Do you think getting 75% lender financing (20 year term) and 15% seller financing (say 20 year amortization with 5 year balloon) is a reasonable/practical expectation?

I'm asking because I have not been able to establish a successful practice of inspecting tenant occupied units. 

Disclosure is not necessary...this is usually a pretty long and difficult road to qualify to sit for the broker exam...but guessing you will need to practice for a couple years before you can become a broker (this is state specific, though)Good luck!

Systems, Automation & Scaling: Also, I have watched / heard the LO gurus talking about 'automating' and 'outsourcing' practically everything... from buying leads and using foreign and domestic VAs that generate and / or 'pre-qualify' people, to even doing their follow- ups and booking appointments for the deal maker... to 'systematizing' practically everything else, under the sun.

He's buying notes for pennies on the dollar, however, and his options will vary by the margin he buys them at.A 'class type map' of Milwaukee doesn't exactly exist, and I think they were outlawed altogether when fair housing laws were passed ;) You could, however, look up an old HUD or FHA redlining map and the damage that those housing practices accomplished is still reflected today in many areas of the city.

As for the LLC suggestion, I have been considering this but it seems to be a fairly common practice for newbies to get the first home under their own name then later start putting newer homes under an LLC once they're more established.

Since it is dictated by case law I don't think a book would be up to date or practical.

So I just want to confirm that it is normal practice to put in a lot of offers, sight-unseen.

I've been exploring the obvious like a new SEO website with blog/newsletters, videos giving investors an update on our projects, advertising on Social Media (FB, IG, etc), attending conferences, being interviewed on podcasts and/or starting my own podcasts....Any other suggestions?
