For example recently in the City of Chicago for an establishment to broadcast THEIR OWN PAID SUBSCRIPTION to Netflix they need to now pay a higher "Entertainment Tax"!

I'm sure there are some exceptions where a tenant reaches out to you, the tenant's payment history is stellar or an established pre existing relationship exists. 

But once you take actionable and measurable steps toward investing, you'll want to establish a relationship with a CPA.

I recommend the book "Rich Dad's Advisors: The ABC's of Property Management: What You Need to know to Maximize Your Money Now"You can probably find it at your local library.It's a great book geared more towards Multi-Family homes so some of the interview requests are overboard (like a list of all properties, resumes of all employees handling your property, etc.)

Someone who has an established business such as yourself could run it out of the 1st floor commercial space while renting out the two residential units above.

Show the established investor you have the fire and passion to succeed.

@Allan RossoI've been working on similar branding ideas on how to differentiate from other investors and establish trust with sellers. 

Because over the years that has been established as the MINIMUM down payment figure for a real estate purchase with only two exceptions: first being for loans with third party guarantees like FHA or private mortgage insurance (if available), second being for lenders willing to accept a higher risk for a much higher interest rate.

Establish a relationship with a lender/bank directly to keep borrowing costs down as much as possible. 

We established a NO pet policy many years ago and recently a tenant secured a Service dog because of a trauma she suffered.
