Really need input regarding obtaining financing.Our goal is to acquire enough income producing properties over the next ten years to make this the full time gig. 

My short-term goals: Obtain a cash flowing, SFH in the Central Valley.Learn how to be a fair, efficient, and profitable landlord.I have a demanding and fulfilling fulltime job that I enjoy.

We've known this would not be a good  long-term investment for us.It seems the first goal would be to obtain an accurate financial picture of their worth and then decide how long they could remain viable sources of income. 

Hello,I'm currently in the process of obtaining my real estate course to get licensed here in Vancouver, WA with the intention of getting into real estate investment properties.

@Victor Olowu which loan company did you use in Chicago to obtain your 203k financing?

Just looking at other options without having to obtain loans.Thank you.

I just don't want to be that guy that had everything planned out for after college, and then come to find out that the house market has flipped on itself, loans are hard to obtain, and have higher rates,etc. 

The hard money lenders I use in Orlando all approve the buyer first and then also approve the deal and even use an appraiser to make sure the ARV will be obtainable.

Unfortunately you won't hear much for LA for cash flow buy and holds, because cash flow is next to impossible to obtain here.
