I've been watching hundreds of YouTube videos to try and teach myself but I feel likes there's none out there that gets into the deep deep details of buying them.

I'm planning a move to Florida and I'm trying to figure out if there's any cities I could pick up a side by side fixer duplex for ~140k (or ideally less) in a B to C neighborhood.

Ideally the person would have real estate investments themselves so they have a personal stake in following the latest developments.I do have a couple I've worked with in RI and have been happy with so far, but it's hard to really know for sure how many of their other clients fit into the "more complicated investor/business owner" rather that "standard W-2 employee" category.One trick I've used with attorneys to find experts in a particular area is to find the attorneys that teach other attorneys about a particular topic, i.e., that lead attorney CLE (continuing legal education) classes in that topic.

MF would be ideal because you really aren't living with someone or looking for a SF with a separate entrance basement which would create the separation you desire I believe.

I ideally hope to be able to target property up to around $1M in value, with 25% down, unless I purchase as a primary with FHA.

We are paying off some in full and will use those for a 5 year commercial loan as a crutch to pull cash out to buy another one. its not ideal but as noted we are looking for any key to unlock that equity to keep buying more.Good luck and please share your experience as we are searching high and low for such a lender!

Obviously these are not the ideal rental properties, but would love to connect with any Miami natives to better understand the market and your experience.

If that is something that you can take advantage of, that would likely be ideal.

I am in multifamily and the 3BR rents have a large delta between 2BR rents, so this was my ideal first investment.
