Networking and relationships is big park of this game. 

My family has a history of owning multiple properties and after years of helping them out, I have decided to follow in their footsteps.

It is fairly common but not all lenders do it, it will be harder if there are multiple owners of the LLC especially if they are not immediate family.For future reference when tagging someone type the @ symbol then the first few letters of their name, then select it from the drop down, this way they will get notified when you mention them.

Game wardens were involved with that. 

Chris, If a multiple owner LLC is using a key principal's funds and financial strength for the acquisition of a multifamily asset, are you saying that remaining LLC owner's financials are not considered?

I personally feel that referrals can be great, especially if you get the same referral from multiple people that aren't closely connected. 

I live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia and when I am driving to and from work I see lots of bandit signs and my heart just flutters because I know that I need to get into the game.

So I’m wondering if I should jump in to the real estate game now and start working forwards my goal, or should I keep hoarding money away until the market cools off a little bit.

This requires more money down and "skin in the game".
