We could help you find something that fits your needs.

I started out with a flat fee brokerage here in Chicago before finding the right fit.

I have some negotiation tactics under my belt but I am hoping to learn about some tactics involving talking to land owners about selling their land or even thinking about selling their land.  

getting a Real Estate License is not that difficult, and the education you will get will be beneficial,  if you are a hustler you can make a ton of money just selling houses, and if you want to wholesale you can give a seller the option to list if wholesaling wont fit. 

Since I am an out of state investor do you know if they will handle all of the stuff involved?

Seems to me that there are issues with the car that involve some thought since one of the units is on top of the garage.2) anything else to consider?

I did find one bank that would refinance to a 15-year loan at a good rate, but that would involve throwing a lot of cash into principal to get the payment down to the point it keeps cashflowing strongly.I've only ever bought two places, this rental and the one I'm in now, but I had considered buying a 3rd place in DC before my next overseas stint. 

I'm currently involved in one right now. 

Could another cabinet of drawers fit in there?
