What's the area that's in demand to master in Multi Family Investing!

[Chaits J.]

Hi all,

I am a small portfolio RE investor looking to break into Multi Family investing.  As i am educating myself with the process, terminology and working ways of MF investing, I am curious to hear from the experts on "What is the skill that's really valuable in MF investing space" - Is it the underwriting as a whole, Or any metric in particular, Having a thorough understanding of demographics, being good at analyzing financial data, Having a good eye / understanding of repairs & maintenance, thorough understanding of zoning and other regulations...etc

I am thinking of mastering one of these in demand skills and offer it to the GP's to get an opportunity to be part of initial deals. Thoughts?

Cheers,
C
