@Adam Pervez I host a few meet ups in North Jersey, We do coffee on a weekend or bar type setting on weeknight each moth.  

Hi Jason, thanks for pointing out that important detail that I missed in my post.I’m referring mainly to rental investment properties, whether it be single or multi-family or condo. 

Why don't they just develop a relationship with a bank (or banks)? 

Hi all,My goal is to buy my first investment property in the next 12 months - house hack a small multifamily in or near Tempe - if the numbers work. 

Purchase price: $135,000 This deal is for three lots (4930 Paseo, 4940 Paseo, 4935 Lydia) with an existing SFH in need of rehab to the studs or scraping.

Cons: Not a happy industry - everyone has a story or opinion and they're usually negative.

Why so specific - Troy, IL or Cleveland?

I'm exploring all options at this point including finishing the home with other builders, as well as selling what has been built (slab and block walls of a single family home 4 bed 3 bath) to another builder or investor.Does anyone have any recommendations on where to look for potential buyers for something like this?

Chris, when you say 95% of brokers are eliminated for not being able to provide successful transaction references, are you referring to actual mortgage brokers, or are you referring to the people that attend a “cash flow” seminar and believe  the easy money hype? 

If you have someone or know someone who is actively lending.
