Doug Pretorius (ON) 9 Report post Posted December 21, 2007 I remember someone years ago talked about how they did this. They simply called all the apartment For Rent ads looking for the owner and asked if they would be interested in selling the building. Then they offered their MLO solution... "I'll take over all the headaches, you'll still get some of the cash flow, and sometime in the next 10 years I'll buy you out." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelC 160 Report post Posted December 21, 2007 Dion, there is an author/investor named Dave Lindhal who is well known for his work in the apartment buildings niche. I don't know him, I'm not familiar with his materials first hand, but I do hear his name pop up often when this subject comes up. Google him and see what you think.

dvought 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2007 I just saw David Lindahl give a one day seminar in Florida a few weeks ago. He seemed to really know his stuff, and didn't come across as a "salesman". He seemed very down to earth. He actually actively invests a lot, and looks to partner with his students. I was offered to partner on two apartment buildings he's currently looking for investors for in TX. As like most others, he does offer a course you can buy, along with a separate boot camp.

Adam King (MI) 1 Report post Posted December 27, 2007 Dave is a friend of mine and I can assure you he knows his stuff. He currently controls over 3000 units. (Just think if he makes $50.00 per month per unit? Do that math! Forget how good he speaks, he's a very intelligent and informative individual. You can also partner with him to shorten your learning curve. If you want to get into commercial, there are also several good books on amazon.com you can buy including Dave's new one. You can get all of them for under $20.00. And finally, Ray Alcorn has a ton of great "FREE" articles on creonline.com. He's another guy that knows his stuff. And last but not least, DO NOT TRY TO GO COMMERCIAL ALONE! There's no "one person" that can do it alone. The stuff that MC teaches can be done alone, not commercial.Hope the helps,Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
