My current plan is to purchase small multifamily homes (in and out of state) and eventually move into apartment complexes.    

Keep at it- youre taking action which WILL eventually pay off...

I am a new REI from Athens, AL with one rental property in NC, and my primary residence which I plan on eventually turning into a rental property as well.

A personal guarantee should be fairly straight forward, but I’d use an attorney to draft all the documents since if this eventually goes sideways, you’ve got major dollars and headaches involved.  

STR as well - unique situation here where eventually it'll turn into a LTR.  

Also, when you consider your expected return on investment divided by the total number of hours devoted to the search and eventual rehab, I wonder whether you are using your time most efficiently or whether the game is worth the candle, especially on a flip.  

So eventually I started doing comps myself instead of agents doing them, and I just asked them to verify the comps.Eventually I finally managed to do a deal and listed it with an agent.

I’m starting out in the real estate investing world and interested in buy and hold properties, I’m aiming towards buying small multi family homes that need some rehab to eventually rent them out.

The more you build that presence, reputation as the authority in your space, the leads will eventually come for free!

It helps to see the other side of things if your goal is to eventually buy & hold and flip.
