I am a licensed Realtor in Michigan and looking to become part of a brokerage in Atlanta, I have spoken to Maximum One Realty and Metro-brokers.

That said, we are planning on moving from Chicago to Grand Rapids, MI.

For owner occupied properties or second homes, you can borrow up to 90%, with no MI, up to $2,500,000 loan amount.

I found an investor in Michigan who is currently trying to sell off half of his portfolio.

That being said, once you narrow down the type of investment that suits you, your finances, and your risk tolerance, the amount of information that applies to you will be greatly diminished, which makes this place a teensy bit less overwhelming.I see that you are looking at MI (great outfit) so you must be interested in exploring turnkey.
