Under contract in 48 hours 2.

As that will at least help folks that you reach out to know that you are a real person, with a picture and professional bio.

Personally I have 25 units and scaling up and generally speaking it takes me about 5 hours per month to do everything.

I always recommend that anyone getting started attend in person meet ups.

An entity is considered to be an owner if it holds record title to the property or has an equitable title or right acquired by contract with the record title holder.

Thanks @Johnny MartinMy suggestion is to partner with a like minded person... and preferably someone like a family member who really knows you... a dad... an uncle, etc that understands the value of passive investing.  

I personally wouldn't entertain the gift option as I think its an unnecessary step and it can take significantly longer. 

There will be a contract that you will need to sign with your tenant (business owner) for a certain amount of years. 

Personally I don't like to do less than 20%. 

I have 63 units under contract for 4.2M.
