My goal is to buy and hold multifamily units for long term cash flow, with the target of owning 100 units by December 2018.

You will be responsible for holding costs for the duration you hold title and are trying to find a buyer.Have you considered trying to get the property under contract with due diligence and then assign the contract to an end buyer?

But I think it would be foolish to go back to the old days when real estate developers were able to sell swampland in Florida to as many eager, unsophisticated, naïve investors in the general public as they can get a hold of.

Hello, I'm a buy and hold investor in the inland Southern California region.

Hello All,I am looking into getting into some buy & hold real estate investing in Lincoln NE.

if you are a buy and hold investor I don't know why you would care as long as it cash flows well every month @Scott TaylorYou should never buy looking for appreciation But if that is one of the reasons you are buying when you sell just finance it for end buyer and get appreciation that way

My focus as of right now will be buy & hold on small multi-family properties.

I've been researching buy-and-hold real estate recently (since June 2016).

Do you have any books you would recommend on buy and hold or investment financing?

It's now time for me to move forward and determine "farm" area for buy and holds.
