I'm planning to purchase my first multi family property within the next few months and I wanted to introduce myself to the forum.

I hope someone out there can and does help, I feel like there are plenty of other people that need to know this besides me.BP does not permit self permotion even on threads where people are asking.. thus people have to recommend someone they use, but after a while it gets old as it’s not their business to promote someone else’s business each and every time someone ask on BP...American Tracers is good, I’ve used them plenty, and it’s founder Corey Crane, is on the forum.
