Tripping over dollars to pick up pennies...Building a sustainable and scalable real estate portfolio should be about elevating and delegating and not doing the work yourself.Otherwise what's the point of investing in the first place?

It’s zoned R4 so I’d love to build 2 townhomes on each lot if possible.

I found a few pre-foreclosure's that I'd like to buy and then assign one to my daughter and her husband and one to my fiancé, ....I'm sure I could dig one up that's already out there, but it seems you have some strong knowledge, I'd like to learn from you.Quote from @Jerryll Noorden: Guys just think about what he is pitching for crying out loud.He craps on ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that gets you "off market leads", and then says: "see everyone is competing for off-market deals, so it is wrong". ..

I promise not to disclose this incentive to you.Then the syndicator will generate a 2.5% fee for buying a building, charge you 2.5% for managing the asset, another 2.5% to sell or refinance it. the GP LP carried interest split will be 70/30 on the huge pile of money we will make.

Should I prioritize market research or focus on building a network of industry contacts?

I’m willing to do what it takes to help you build, one property at a time. 

I joined my local landlord association, started building contacts and connections that ultimately made this venture a success.

Are there any Seasoned Vets in the California Bay Area who would be willing to mentor / advise a newbie whom only has a strong background in all things Construction and Maintenance?
