Multi Family Investor Pain Points
TLDR
What skills do multi family investors find valuable (either niche or hard to find) when entering, managing, or exiting an investment?
The long version
I know many of you investors have and will invest in and manage deals throughout the year—and make a lot of money doing so. While I know you and your team have most of the deals and management covered and running smoothly. However, I'd imagine there are a lot of pain points and frustrations that come along at many points in the process that make you pull your hair out. I feel for you, and as someone new (but obsessed) with multi-family investing, I want to use my skills and talents to help investors make their investment process smoother and pain free in exchange for an "apprenticeship" so that I can one day invest in multi family homes. So, to ensure I use my skills properly for investors, I want to know what skills do multi family investors need to increase their investment success and ROI? Even if it's niche or hard to find.

The two major components in MF is either finding / running the deal, or finding the money. For the former, are you good at financial modeling, analysis, broker relations, or operations? For the latter, are you a skilled marketer, content marketer/developer, CRM wizard? Lots of areas for you to add value.
