DJM Capital Partners is a private equity investment, development and asset management service company within the commercial real estate sector.I came across bigger pockets through a friend who is using his new-found knowledge to buy and hold in the Philly area.

It was financed through private investors that the developers lined up. 

We've had the same tenants the last 18 months.Rent: $1,350/monthMortgage, Ins, taxes: $960/monthOur initial plan/goal was to acquire properties and hold them for long-term (20-30 years+) to essentially have the tenants pay for the mortgage and we would make a decent cash flow profit annually and then eventually have a solid asset (trying to diversify investing, e.g. not having everything in retirement accounts/stocks)Just recently the A/C had some leaks and is pretty much on it's last leg and needing a replacement (quote of ~$8-$9,000 installed + fixing leaks in duct work).

I'm looking to get a few (eventually) in Hollywood, FL.

I would develop a ruff estimate of all needed repairs/deferred maintenance requirements.  

The goal is to create capital to begin developing passive income, enough to start planned investments. 

She eventually left without incident, one month lost rent.Now, if YOU file the eviction prior to her 30 days being up, she will have a cause of action against YOU for retaliation, and may be able to extend her occupancy for FREE!!!

Through out the whole interview not even one qn was asked - as to what are the real practical roadblocks are .Anyway - question everything , keep learning , develop emotional intelligence .

However most people I know are flipping to eventually transition into buy/hold.

This would also give the parents the confidence that a syndication works and eventually could move into a full investment mode and make money as a family.That is in essence my idea, what do you think?
