I am focusing on 1 ~ 2 bd attached single flips. 

Seeking a rental and leasing agent to show rentals and accept rental applicants in Berrien County, with focus around Benton Harbor. 

It's funny, the pressure of not having a paycheck almost activated a different part of my brain that became more focused, more willing to move to this area of uncomfortably when prospecting for deals and business.

Work on finding the team you feel comfortable with, that you trust to be there for 10-20 years, rather than focusing on whatever the 'hottest' market is right now.

Instead, I would focus on strategies that allow you to exploit your already existing relationships. 

I would focus my time educating myself in the investment strategy you are going to execute as an investor.

I would also focus on developing a system to create consistent deal flow.

. - I would like to focus on B and C+ properties only.- Strategy is long-term buy and hold.- Purchase price to Rent ratio = 1% minimum- SFR to start off with, would consider multi-family in future based on performance/faith in team.- Minimum 1 purchase 2018.

Three things: (1) Focus on the market you know (2) really get to know your #s (3) start talking to everyone you know about your REI goals.

I am planning on focusing on remodeling all of the units, then there are some larger items I plan on hitting(painting exterior, redoing cat walks).
