If you feel like you're units are inline with them (finish level, sq ft. etc) then you should be able to achieve those rental rates or need to adjust accordingly.  

Whatever you do don't quit, stay a student and you will achieve your goals.

I do multifamily financing for a living and in Southern California we're usually limited by debt service so we rarely achieve the max LTV.

What minimum percent down is reasonable to achieve and still obtain a competitive rate (let’s say 4.5% or so right now)?

You don't have to spend a lot to achieve a timeless look.

There are always trends to achieve this, the real GDP will be increased within 5 years, as I read in many international websites Is the currency stable?

Sounds like you need to find out what it is you are looking to achieve.

So, NOI at 262k brings a value of about 4.8m at a 5.5 cap rate and proceeds from a refinance at 70% LTV should be 3.3m or so.These are obviously rough numbers and also assuming that you fix up 100% of the units to achieve all rents at $800.Partnering with another syndicator to raise the 1.1m needed to do the project might be a good way.

If you are looking for the limited liability protection, in my layman’s opinion you didn’t achieve it.If you are asking about, the 10 conforming loan limit, it is per individual that gives the mortgage to my understanding.Good luck.

Because we have better local information, on where the path of development is going, and what the City of Des Moines may be trying to achieve in a specific area.Perfect example is the "Market District" area south of the Capitol complex.
