Need Help From A Commercial Lender...

[Benjamin Holt]

Weird post but I am putting together a proposal and need some information on some markets that I am not currently in and need the info fairly quickly. If the proposal goes THROUGH (presentation next Thursday), I will need a local commercial lender in all of the markets: Des Moines, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Baltimore, Providence...

The questions I need answered for each of those market are:

Question to ask the Commercial Lender

1) what is multi-family real estate market in your region? more or less units coming on line

2) what does a multi-family building cost in your area per unit(transitional community)

3) how is the labor force in your community i.e construction workers

4) is there a need for affordable housing in you community

5) is it a good time to invest in multi-family housing in your community?

Any help would be greatly appreciated and if the proposal goes through I would love to have conversations about helping find sites in those markets quickly (approximately would be 50ish unit acq/rehab)
