I'm a local chicago mortgage lender but we are licensed and do a ton of business in CA as well - happy to be a resource in any way I can!

This is what I was looking for, thank you so much for taking time to offer up this advice.

I'm curious to hear from this community about what additional services you think a property manager should offer to enhance the overall property management experience.What are some other innovative or valuable services you think property managers could offer?

The idea is to understand how to make the financing work on my end and come up with some budget then start approaching land owners with a set plan/offer to see if any of them are willing to sell.Need some creative ideas from some experts to help me understand how I could make something like this happen.

I think an update now is great to share in order to get your support and hopefully inspire like minded people.Since my last post, I've been working none stop on expanding my knowledge, network and resources.

It sounds like a valuable resource as I continue to delve deeper into real estate investing.I'm particularly interested in joining a motivated local investing group that specializes in buy & hold and multifamily properties too.

Did you get robbed or offered drugs while walking around? 

Generally any multi family purchases 5+ units is considered commercial, and although many lenders offer financing, the down payment requirements will be slightly higher..usually 25-35% depending on the number of doors.  

Our financial support demonstrated our commitment to providing the necessary resources for successful real estate investments, enabling a smooth and profitable transaction in collaboration with our partner, Mike Hardin.

I cannot recommend much about the areas in Dallas, but i can definitely offer my expertise as Mortgage Loan Officer, Investor and Short Term Rental host.Feel free to reach out :)
