I am currently in the mix on picking up 2 apartment buildings and a duplex in Minot ND. as well as starting to buy fixer uppers and remodeling them. i would love to connect with Minot investors and talk about property managers and who is preferred in the area. 

My biggest deal is a 6plex and I'm now looking to scale into 8-12 unit buildings. 

I build outside of city limits in TX.

It’s a great plan and if my spouse wasn’t opposed I would buy a new 2-4 unit building about every 14 months and live in one unit and take advantage of the low down payment loans.

Since my main profession is office management for a residential remodeling company, would flipping to build up more capital be a better place to start?

Build your whole team within another brokerage. 

Despite the small town feel, lots of research companies, an Amazon warehouse close by along with high paying science, tech, research jobs and even Costco is now building here.

I don't see any reliable apps that focus on handling maintenance requests for small multifamily owners (2-4 units).

Marketing leads via forms and acquiring their contact info id say aout of 15 leads 3-4 answer and even go see the list of new builds I have them go see but not converting what can I do different to close these leads ?
