I'm about 2 weeks into the loan process and found out the repair costs are going to be larger than anticipated.

@Ashleigh LeachI figured given not having a big portfolio of properties I wouldn’t qualify or get a larger apartment building deal.

Not to say it can't be done, it would just take more work and a larger marketing budget than other markets and you might not make as much. 

No luck is reaching out and speaking to four different lawyers and only one of them actually investing any time or energy into it. 

If you don't like the opportunistic people, don't give them your precious time and energy.   

Are you looking to buy smaller multifamily properties (2-49 units) or larger ones (50+ units)?

Joseph is small and I have a couple of the larger banks yet to call (Commerce and US Bank).

I think you should look into properties nearby and do some comps for fourplexes to see if its worth the rehabbing. yes, rehabbing will take more time and energy, but if the return is there... wouldn't it worth your while?

Today a larger-than-anticipated number of tenants have service animals, and I've seen the full gambit in CA.

Why aren't more people talking about this and instead refer to a Self Directed IRA instead (even though it seems leveraging a Solo(k) offers more opportunity, larger annual limits, and lower operational costs).The company we are looking at is solo401k.com since they charge only $399 to open and a fixed $99/annual fee.Anyone have experience with this retirement account or company?
