The main criteria should be finding someone who is highly experienced in real estate and preferably one who invests personally.

We don't typically advertise a target refinance date or amount unless it's an essential element of the business plan (heavy value add), but include it as a preference within the first 1-4 years of ownership. 

Most property management companies do all your accounting for you and send you reports and direct deposits into any account that you prefer if you go that route when you add in more doors.On a side note, It depends on your state as to how your rents and security deposits are kept, so good to check the statutes out an dmake sure you adhere to their guidance.

@Masood Amin it’s essentially a partnership of multiple investors who pool their resources togetherto pursue an endeavor that they themselves could not, or would prefer not to do themselves.There is a Sponsor or General Partner for the project, who is the activeinvestor puts the deal together and is responsible for executing the business plan, and thenthere is a group of passive investors, the Limited Partners, who contribute capital in exchangefor equity in the project.

Any local PMs you have had success with (you can message me directly if you prefer).

So as far as hard money lenders go, I've been quoted as low as 7% interest (this changes daily), and they would even use the equity in my first home for the down payment on my 2nd property, this however is a last resort for me as i would prefer less risky financing.

I do plan on selling from time to time as a secondary source of income.Some of the things I'd rather have is:Little to no desk fee (I prefer to work remote)Low monthly brokerage feeGood support & mentoring when neededThanks!

I prefer to email because I don't want to surprised someone with a call. 

Not that i wont add debt , but my goal is to minimize my debt as much as possible , i would prefer to be debt free if possible , its much less stressful 

At the time I asked the lender about refinance and the answer was that the terms would be similar.Please reach out privately if you prefer not refer on the public forums.Thanks
