I'm specifically looking to connect with people whom have experience in remodeling homes in the DFW area.

You inject 35% /cash into the project & the lender will finance 65% LTC, set a maximum purchase price, pick a specific location, and property type. 

So last September I was reached out to our CAM, saying that I was bumped back to 3rd because this specific owner (also board member) was not happy with his spot.

I assist my clients by asking all the right questions, getting to know them and understanding their family's specific needs.About the FHA, I think the fact you work in CA doesn't mean you resign there.

Hi @Eugene Carelli first off I would definitely talk with a real estate attorney/CPA so they can help you with your specific situation.A good amount of the investors that I work with choose to have one LLC hold a number of different properties.

I've been looking in Texas, specifically Killeen, as there will be military members with regular pay checks etc.Any thoughts or opinions are helpful.Andrew

First, rather than posting that you don't know anything, focus on explaining what you do know, what you are good at, and what aspects of your background could help you as an multifamily investor.More specifically, here are a few ways to break into multifamily with no experience:Past business experience: if you have a strong business background (i.e., been promoted, held a high level position at a large company, started your own business), you can leverage your track record and translate your skills into multifamilyThought leadership platform: create an interview-based podcast, blog, YouTube channel, start a meetup group.

We are in the middle of our 1st/2nd deal right now and thought we would open ourselves up to questions and comments while we are in the thick of things and can give some specifics regarding FHA/duplex purchase and we are both self employed at 30/35.We were living in Germany (I am a German citizen, my wife is American) prior to making the move back to Cleveland in 2013.

Are you looking in any specific cities or near specific campuses? 

I am going to include my real scenario with as many specifics as possible so I can get the most detailed advice, I could use it.
