I don't want him to be my brokerage sponsor because he will want me to look at MF deals, which has extremely slowed down in the past few years.

Regarding inspection, I am honestly not sure.

Funds are beginning to run extremely tight.   

@John Matthew Johnston 80% of the time, it's a thankless job:(You're never fast enough for complaining tenants, nor fast enough or cheap enough for owners.To have any chance of success, you have to be extremely organized, or every day starts with your hair on fire!

Don't you think 75/25 to the gap funds investor is a bit extreme?

If someone came to me looking for money and was trying to invest across multiple asset classes as different as the ones you are interested in, that would leave me extremely weary.

Co-living is going to grow and grow as time goes on (but maybe less so in my neck of the woods, to be honest).

My husband and I are both excited (and honestly a little overwhelmed) about buying our first investment property.

Any advice, suggestions or recommendations to honest investor mindset realtors in these markets would be greatly appreciated!! 

I tried a big out of state flip due to living in a HCOL area and it failed miserably because I couldn't keep eyes on it and didn't have a good/honest team in place.
