But to expect someone who is doing big things to figure out how you can fit in their puzzle is a big ask.

You will never know everything, but you need to know enough to make an informed decision that fits with your goals and your level of risk.

I run a small private real estate investment club and we love to plan happy hours for visitors to Milwaukee.

I don't have 2 years of work history, but I do plan to work a W2 job until I start seeing progress in my rental estate journey.

I understand there is no “right” way to do it but my plan was to get hard money for the purchase of the property and use a heloc for the renovations.

I wanted to take a minute to let you know a little bit more about how our system may be a good fit for you (admittedly we are not the right fit for everybody—so many different ways for investors to make money in this industry).You mentioned that you love the idea of someone vetting deals for you, as you are restricted on time.

For example, a city could be currently zoned Agriculture, but if the city has this area planned/expected to be MF by 2030, your chance for rezoning is much more favorable. 

Work on a payment plan, but have it such that the entire cost of the damages are paid in full before the lease ends. 

My plan has been to use 1031 and build my equity until I own a farm w no morgage and it cash flows. 

Now I know a lot of people will say test prices which I plan on doing eventually but at the moment I am being aggressive on the remodeling / re investing side and since high season is only a few months a year in my area I dont want to miss out on revenue when I do not have to.
