Usually buildings that were originally built for multiple units are separately metered.

Then moving into fix and flip and eventually, holding properties for passive income...Over teh last few months, I have engaged myself in extensive (REI..) training.

I don't do wholesaling; but I do very esoteric owner finance offers and multiple deals at time. 

I have multiple properties in Portsmouth residential and commercial, and do not currently use a PM due to serious lack of professionalism and flat out lack of ability to do the job I'm also watching this post for someone specific to Portsmouth as it is it's own litttle pocket. 

The first one is always the hardest so you're on your way.Shows that people should not have excuses to go out and do this since you're dealing with multiple jobs as well as big responsibilities at home.

I know I can get multiple different answers to this question but how fast is too fast in buying into  buy and hold investing?

Moreover, I have a number of Hispanic clients who have bought multiple properties from me and send their friends once they have. 

I think option 2 has greater potential for building equity as I would have multiple properties paying for themselves while producing a profit.

You may even want to do a series LLC or multiple LLCs so you can keep the rental business outside of the flipping business.

While alot of Realtor hate the practice, I put in multiple bids to take the property off market, then have an inspection as well as a financial out if my due diligence does not meet my expectations or I negotiate a better deal on the other property.
