I want to start a assisted living business with a 4 bedroom home and a business helps organize your thoughts, data, and it also drives you to your end goal. 

All assistance is welcomed.

I was, however, very worried about the local Housing Authority policies regarding implementation of the HAP (Housing Assistance Payment) Contract.

@Brie Schmidt discusses how budgeting could assist you with your $10k effort.Consider reviewing craigslist for your area as a resource to confirm available area rents, as does @Michele Bruce per her podcast.We don't give away fee to PMs for tenant sourcing or screening.You'll need a relationship with your tenant and it should begin before you agree to have them rent your place.Landlord work early in an investing career tends not to be an arms length effort.Be wary of trying to make it so for any stage.Yours is likely not really a question as to what to do with the equity you have in the home but more as to whether you want to be a landlord and whether your market is tenant rich.Good luck.

My main interest is in multi-family rental properties, but just spending a few days on BP I am know considering looking into buying rehabs to hold and maybe flip.Thanks for taking the time to read thru my intro, if you have gotten this far that is, and please never hesitate to reach out if you think I can be of assistance.

Tell them something silly like your assistant messed up the rental comps and gave you the wrong information.

Any assistance that you could provide would be fantastic.

I know how wholesaling works but I have never done it myself so I can't be much of assistance there, however I do know many of them and it is just like sales you have to jump in and do it 100% no excuses and don't be afraid to fail because that is how you will get better.Once you get some capital and want to start investing hit me up, I am an investor friendly agent in the area and I would love to help with anything I can.I also highly recommend coming to ACRE and REIA meetings, it is a great way to learn and network and I will probably see you there.Good Luck!

I am currently building my power team which will include an investor friendly realtor who would assist with comps.

Any suggestions or offers to assist in the BP community?
