So I'm looking to scale up with an eager staff waiting!

I know plenty of investors who will happily pay one of the many firms out there who help place equity so they can focus on their core competency which is running their real estate business (me being one of who would gladly pay a fee so for access to equity and the ability to focus on what I do best as a developer).

So my questions to the forum are:  1) What are your thoughts on Ron LeGrand and do you think his courses are worth the investment?  

So I’m in a bit of a bind, I have a duplex I’m house hacking we remodeled entire thing, new hvac, electric panels, electric main, updated plumbing, water heaters, furnace, install central air, roof.

Network and build relationships with these agents so you become their "go-to" referral for their clients.

There are already 3 tenants bringing in a total of $7500 in rental income, if one moves out so I can owner occupy I make $5000. 

If you want to point the finger, we can blame the Fed for holding rates low for so long, and the govt for printing 5 T, making money real cheap and allowing these NY investors to over pay on the real estate.I guess you have to wait until the banks take these assets back.

The reason being is the house is "owner occupied" so you can't count rent against it.

I have been investing for 3 years and so far my cash flow percentage (out of total rental income) is around 1.5%.

Paying a bit more for a property manager isn't so bad when you consider something as priceless as peace of mind.
