Multifamily / Apartment Investors - Start small or Big?
Hello BP and Apartment aficionados,
I have heard many seasoned investors say start small and grow bigger. I have also heard them say in retrospect they wish they had started from the beginning or at least sooner with 50 to 100+ unit complexes.
If you had to start all over again from scratch which road would you choose and what would your strategy be?
Please share your background (how you started & where you are today) and any major thing(s) that made the difference for you to step into bigger properties?
Many thanks,
Terry
