Similar sized homes sell for 600- 850k in good condition.My idea is to get a loan(suggestions on type welcome) for the renovations.

Consequently, I am looking for new GC's to work with that can take on decent-size projects and will get it done quick.

But I really want to save that moment for a big boy purchase like a decent size apartment complex, 6 units and up.

It depends on the size of property you might be looking for.

God knows where he got it all, he didn't even know where when I asked him for full size pics for website.. he mentioned he had thousands, yeah, almost all except a handful (6 to be exact) were miniature thumbnail size. 

Hey @Karthik RamachandranIn general it is best to target markets with both positive employment growth and population growth.After evaluating the state for general economic trends and real estate related laws which will affect how you can operate in the state, the local market is important and can be very diverse within each state.  

3. being that i am transitioning from one state to the next which would be a good idea: A. move to Georgia, get employed get a lease and once my lease is up seek Real Estate investing once the lease is up? 

As an employer sponsored retirement, the 401(k) requires a business that is generating earned self-employment income. 

However with it being a small multifamily, your comps are going to be ran very similar to comps that are ran for any single family home, comparing prices paid for recently sold homes that are comparable in size, style and location. 

what sizes??......
