Honestly, it seems like you’ve got more skin in the game than I do since I’m just getting started as a bird dog, but I really admire your approach.I think your focus on tax-efficient strategies and building a reliable team is spot on.

Hi @Sean Leahy - good direction, I've never considered this but now that I think about, whenever I've had some random rental/sale listings I've been approached by brokers who said they represent folks that are part of the insurance company's claim management process (e.g. their house burnt down due to an accident). 

Call the PM (I don’t think HABD will provide information on a property you don’t own - even if you can get them to answer the phone).

Do you think every investor made a 100%+ return on every dollar spent?

And are you thinking single-family, multi-family, or something else?

Thanks in advance.Hey Cosmo,I do think there is a growing concern towards the reliability with section 8 with varying administrations right now.

I think if you leverage 70% of it you’re going to seriously cut into your cash flow and personally if I was going to have $7M in debt I’d prefer it to be spread over several projects built slowly.

I think it is a typical Midwest market with a mixture of A through D neighborhoods scattered about.

Some lenders will fund 100% of the deal + renovations if you are experienced.Wholesaling is possible but be mindful that it is a business, you don't make any money until you can persuade someone to sell their house and then to find a buyer.I personally think its easier to be an agent, still a business but there should be people teaching you and you have more of a reputation when talking to sellers.

I also think of property locations and property conditions having different classifications.
