. - focus on an investment strategy- focus on a metro (Midwest cashflows)- focus on a neighborhood or 2- reach out to brokers who are MF specific (small ones are the best)- build a relationship- talk with folks in town- market to current ownersYou can’t possibly do this effectively with too broad an approach.

Homes are sold "as is", but "as is" can be broad, if you are buying privately, get a good real estate lawyer to guide you through.I am also a realtor myself, and also a bit biased towards private sales where no prior relationship exists with the seller, tread very carefully.

Trying to make a decision based on cash flow per door is too broad in my opinion.

The ripple effect is broad reaching and yet to be felt.  

that is an extremely broad question.

It builds character AND cash flow ;)Everyone has a different spectrum of real estate, only do what you feel comfortable.

This will allow them to gauge exactly how much time they're willing to put towards helping you, as well as give you an idea in the process of how much you can expect from themPersonally, for someone in your situation, I would set up a broad email drip search that would allow you to gain familiarity with the market you're interested in focusing on.

This is a pretty broad question and I'm sure it depends on the type and level of insurance the landlord buys, but it may bring up a nice discussion, so when is landlord insurance used outside of a major fire or disaster?
