Good thing about rentals is that you can have positive cash flow but loss for tax purpose because of a depreciation.

And we work to achieve our position collectively. 

I look for areas with solid properties in B type neighborhoods that are cash flowing and well positioned to appreciate.

Can anybody help provide who they have used and if it has been a positive or negative experience?

@Melissa Lee are you still cash flow positive by adding in the $200?

Hope some of this helps, it is what I would do in your position!

I would say, from my experience, there are more good SFR rental deals than there are duplex rental deals.Frenship and Cooper are both desirable, but I do believe Cooper has taken the front position.

We will be raising capital, offering 8-12% returns to investors, but we first need a track record, so we chose to find deals and finance them via Seller Financing, combined with Hard MoneyProblem is, no one wants to be in 2nd position for a mortgage, and all lenders ask for cash of our own up front (several hundred thousands, which we of course, do not have)Any suggestions?

I know putting them in second position is pretty much worthless if we default (not that we would of course).

There is less competition there and you have the rewards that can come from the cap rate when adding positive improvements.
