Over the last six months, my total acquisitions have been zero.

What acquisition methods do you utilize for finding off-market deals?

What you're going to need to do after you set everything up and you get the first bill for the new property is to make ABSOLUTELY SURE each account sends each bill to the right place.What happened to us two properties back is that we got the electricity turned on at a new acquisition, left on vacation for a week-and-some and came back, and wondered where our multiple bills were until we visited the new property. 

@Anthony Ladson I looked into using them for a recent acquisition of an apartment building in Berwyn.

The transaction may not involve any sale or assignment of the sales contract.”If you try to do a double close, HUD will also require a 90 period between resale...HUD 4000.1 states, “A Property that is being resold 90 Days or fewer following the sellers date of acquisition is not eligible for an FHA-insured Mortgage.”

The list is endless I could go on forever.I feel a lot of people waste time with wholesaling, flipping, and a bunch of other stuff in the beginning because it takes a long time to master those things and get any kind of significant results.If you partner with a good agent you can buy a primary residence in a short time, learn the basics of the real estate acquisition process, with very little out of pocket AND a low credit score.

Hi BP,I have an opportunity to purchase a 92 Acre plot of beautiful land w/ 3 homes on the land as well in SW Virginia.  I own quite a few smaller multifamily investments in this town but have never purchased a larger...

So either the value of the acquisition has to be high enough for both of you to go on deed as tenants in common and have them still purchasing at least as much as they sold. 

You'll need a good GC for the constructionYou'll need an estimator or inspector for initial screening of propertiesYou'll need a hard  money lender for acquisition and renovation and then another lender for the long term financingNot to mention, an investor friendly title company and solid hazard insurance company and then once you're up and running a property management company.I would go to local REIA's or Meetups and network, find these people and create my team before I took one more step forward.Stephanie

Pricing at acquisition would not necessarily be different, but the servicing side is.
