Volunteer to answer phones and do open houses for a local Realty Office.Bottom line is - this can be done, but you are gonna have to really kick *** and take names.....Feel free to ask for help here....if you are serious you can do this.

I've been too busy rehabbing my 3 unit apartment building to really focus on anything else.But nonetheless, I have been keeping up with my less-than-professional deal pipeline.My first question regarding this involves raising capital to invest in deals.

It's a 240 unit multi family apartment in Texas.

Honestly, I don't think it is worth using one of those companies unless the house is really in terrible condition and has issues with title, major city liens, is a part of a lawsuit, etc.

run the numbers with different down payments and see what that looks and feels like.hope this helps

This feels gimmicky and overrated to me. 

NOI, and thus cap rate, feeds into how much of a down payment is required b/c it feeds into the "sizing" of the loan.Many asset classes, like apartments and offices, have less than ideal in place cap rates today, so you need 35% or 50% down to buy them (unlike a DTI-based home loan, your personal W2 income cannot be used to significantly offset).

So if insurance guy calculate to build the house is costing me $300 PPSF.Then in that case I have to buy house that costs me around $300 PPSF.In other word, if cash-flow property got fire, then it doesn't make sense to rebuild that house in 2023, because we only have the land value then, there's no point to rebuild if the FMV still less than rebuild cost....It feels so strange.

What if you have an apartment complex with 20 units?

I don't have anymore Ca properties but the Santa Clara Farmer's office underwrites an apartment building in coastal wa.
