He's finding more properties than I can get qualified to purchase.If you're looking for commercial (5+ units) @Nathan Holsather is a good bet as well.If you're looking for someone who does value-add residential, @Jordan Moorhead is both a rehabber and an agent.

The offer sounds tempting since  the group has to finance about 3M$ (the rest comes from a bank with a low interest) and the building is bought about 1.5M below value, so when we sell we should expect a 50% return when selling which should be 3 years from now.The thing that bugs me is the way the building value was evaluated, i am copying a section from the presentation:"Market activity has shown similar properties consistently trading in the 4.75-5.25% cap range (refer to “Comparables” slide for specifics).

Doesn't seem to be much activity. 

Would a HML be my best bet on this property .......... as i may have a better chance for being approved to do most of the repairs , as well as Having the best chance of getting a loan for the property?

The conventional may be my best bet, but I do have my house that I can work with.

There are tons of active investors and real estate professionals to network with.

Once you build up you find more people to help and you can start to move up in value.IMO the best way to meet people is to be active in something, volunteer fire, Legion, Elks etc.

Your best bet is to have your agent contact the listing broker's employing broker and let them know the situation and request to be present when your offer is presented. 

Most leases have something about illegal activity being grounds for eviction.

Yes investors are actively purchasing but in my opinion it is good for the district's economy.
