I'm mostly interested in buy and hold investing for both single-family and multi-family units as well as learning more about creative investing and wholesaling. 

No DCR etc...same as multi family

***Additionally, a mortgage broker that is able to take a tenant-buyer's option consideration that is paid to me (wholesale lease option deal), and either apply that consideration towards the TB's down payment when the exercise their right to purchase ORdiscount the price of the house.Typically the consideration goes through a third-party escrow account (my attorney's), and that helps with the above.Typically mortgage brokers who understand this type of situation will only submit financing applications to banks they have great relationships and won't have an issue with this type of thing.Thanks in advance!!

I'm also focusing on buy and hold along with multi family.

Well, if you are multi-state, your LLC will have to register as a foreign LLC in each state (other than where the LLC was formed).

At least have a 3rd party licensed agent do a BPO / CMA price for this property.  

I have 3 multi family properties on the west side of Cleveland in Lakewood Ohio and am planning on looking for a larger commercial property.

Most of them are able to remotely purchase based off of referrals, numbers, photos, videos, 3rd party inspections and whatever else they need to feel comfortable.

With her 14yr experience in condo property management with a Chicago portfolio, we have decided to capitalize on that knowledge to build our own portfolio through buy & hold opportunities, specifically multi-unit properties.  

The refinancing part is traditionally done with a bank.
