As a SFR investor for over 15 years I have been wrestling with this question in the past, because it feels like you should upgrade to "bigger".I know for sure that I would not enjoy the ownership experience that comes with a small 4F, because in Milwaukee that typically also means lower income tenants. 

A positive word from you could turn things around here where people are beginning to feel the course is a scam.

Please feel free to reach out to me and my team if you would like to come up with a game plan and build your buy box. 

Remember, the notion of amassing wealth without investing is a dangerous myth perpetuated by self-proclaimed experts.

Having a co-signer doesn't feel like that at first, but you can't predict the future.

@Joseph Kirton How much time do you feel is needed to be successful?

If we can complete projects faster, we increase IRR and build trust.3) Market Risk- The longer it takes to complete a project, the more exposed you are to market fluctuations.This goes for all things Real Estate - BRRRRs, Flips, New Builds, Rehabs, etc.Real Estate is a wild ride I feel your pain, I've had this happen many times where the project is twice as long.

If not in a bathroom, I feel these are trashy.

That's just a niche of customer that they really feel comfortable taking risk with. 

A lot of my clients want to get into real estate, but I’m not an expert on the investment side, so I’m looking for some advice.When it comes to using funding like this, what strategies do you think work best?
