My question is, am I on the right track currently, should I continue with SFR's transitioning into MFR then into Apartment Complexes, even though I have some experience managing a friends MFRs?

Now if we're on our 10th deal together and reducing to 3% is the only way to make the numbers work I would consider it but these are all cases by case Andrew track record and history together (or lack thereof) speaks volumes. 

You're on the right track though.

Then run a new and separate offering on the next project, rinse and repeat until you've built some track record...

I can give you a few sites as well and Wayne is def on the right track!

Surrounding yourself with strong people with proven track records in the areas you are interested in investing is key.

Ideally, somebody who has a track record of getting investors good off-market deals.  

I am looking for referrals for an agent that can help get me on track in finding some deals.  

I think you're definitely on the right track.

Not super in depth but I do have a good track record of being honest and hardworking.
