Or does the end buyer talk to the title company on his own and then they call me and I bring in the contracts?

@Matthew Paul Yes, we would be paying a contractor no matter what, and that is what he brings to the table as his expertise.

Unless he brings a lot more to the table. 

There are many real estate investing websites out there and I have already joined the CFRI my local chapter of real estate investors.  

If...after a year or two you have observed what they do, how they do it and can see a benefit to doing the management yourself to save the money...then maybe bring it in. 

I have many more in my website's library.

Since I found the BP website about 4 years ago I have dedicated myself and I have all the time I need and spend all I can on the internet and I read a book about every two or three weeks. 

I’m looking at it the same way, I’m not going to bring my family to an undesirable area for their sake, and I look at reducing expenses as a positive, as for at least a first investment moving my money positively is a step forward 

The Kenosha/Racine market is extremely competitive right now so be sure to bring your A game and be prepared to move quick if you consider that area. 

So this means if you're buying a 3-4 unit property and you're trying to be the non owner occupant coborrower and have your partner "live," at the property then you'll be limited to 75% LTV (AKA means you gotta bring in 25% down or the difference).FHA had too much fun with straw buyers doing this in the past so they came up with this rule to protect themselves against this issue.
