I specialize in buy-and-hold and value-add investment strategies, with a focus on multi-family properties.

Many investors start with a variety of insurance carriers to manage different properties.

How did you go about getting your second property?

Currently, I live in Hawaii, house hacking my own property, and am looking to expand into out-of-state long-term rentals.My goals now are to master the art of wholesaling, continue raising private money, and build a strong portfolio of long-term rentals.

Huntsville ranked the best in this metric at only 14.1% of the median household income.However, the low property tax rate of just 0.41% of the median home value—the seventh lowest in the country—may seal the deal.

@Moshe Cohen   The easy answer is called "delayed financing" assuming you are buying/bought the property with cash. 

From my observations, most  properties marketed by wholesalers are not  “off market deals”.

I have owned many properties in Westchester over the past 30 years, but it's best to make them fix the permitting or rip it out or use those things as a way to get a better price, which you won't get in Westchester.You only accept as-is bathrooms or basements without permits when you are going to do a full rehab yourself and can get a temporary CO.

I'm looking to meet other investors and possibly partner up on some flips. 

I'd want to meet the person over zoom if not in person.
