Hi Frank,I suggest you run the numbers through the BiggerPockets rental calculator, and see if it looks good based on that.As far as financing, this will be a commercial deal, so you should either find a commerical mortgage broker in the area, or start calling the local banks in the area that may finance the deal.Best of luck, and feel free to reach out if you need any help!

@Paul Martinez, I'm a real estate attorney and broker. 

How many properties have you done with that broker? 

You find them by attending PIA meetings and building relationships with property managers/mortgage brokers and accountants.I am guessing that you are American and you have moved to NZ.

2) Whether or not advertising on my own website constitutes a general solicitation to the public for a securities offering.3) Whether or not I need to be registered as a broker-dealer for providing investment advice with respect to recommending the purchase or sale of securities.I absolutely plan to consult my attorney on these questions but I’m also looking for some experience based answers and a place to look some of these things up in black and white in order to have a more productive and informed discussion with my attorney.Thank you everyone!

Especially factoring in my return on time, I'm more motivated right now to sit on the sidelines, to be honest.I'm wondering if a fundamental difference in your options are getting into the volume you're doing as a broker (vs what we're doing). 

While many middle-men were vaporized by that internet phenomenon; travel brokers, traders, insurance, etc., Realtors® and mortgage brokers have gone unscathed thus far.

I'm planning on moving out and living in the next multi, however I would like to use an FHA loan.I called a few brokers and they said it wasn't possible unless it was 100 miles away.

Get your license and open a lot more door than trying to broker without a license.
