Hi @Brad Penley I specialize in multifamily investing and brokering.

The CMA my broker did came back at $180k - $190k.

I would like to pursue eventually becoming a broker, a builder, and develop a large portfolio of buy and hold investment properties.Closed on my third investment property today. 

These would be mid-market brokers who have listings from 10+ units up to 150 or so.

My son is a real estate broker and property manager and he deals with investors. 

Also, this is only for 10 years, so between now and then we will need to refinance and spend those extra, saved fees anyway.The second option is to use our broker.

You should look for another broker....there are plenty out there...

I just haul it to the dump and tell them to sue me if they don't like it.. because I have all my fancy trusts series LLC and other asset protection set up so no one can get a judgement from me anyway.I would think there is not enough storage units to go around if every actually stored this junk.. and or this is a nichestart a haul off storage for landlords and PMs  one call does it all.. haul it to your storage charge the landlord the haul off and the storage.. that seems like a nice additional profit center for an enterprising PM company .. and your just following the letter of the law which as a broker you probably have to do .. me I don't care I can hold my own against a dead beat tenant..  

Freeing up the cash will more than pay for itself.I would try a mortgage broker rather than shopping the market yourself.

You'll need to hold a managing broker license in this state to have your own PM company.
