Some days I feel confident and then other days I'm worried about a ton of things like (what if I get ripped off).

Feel free to shoot me a DM if you want to talk about the market in more detail. 

thanks for your time and help rent to retirement works directly with build to rent developers like us around the country once they are framed up. you are buying properties pretty much at market value but with a hand holding. you can work directly with a builder or directly with them. they are just an intermediary. they take 5% on what we make as a builder but have a large list of investors and a systemized approach to selling new builds. if you want to get a better deal I'd recommend directly contacting builders and building it yourself. fly to the market. spend 2 days, tour new builds, get a feeling for how it's going. if your builder isn't building multiple at a time then I wouldn't recommend working with them. rent to retirement is a well oiled and well run machine. they've had their ups and downs with dozens of transactions in florida but modified their process. they are well known and established and transparent. if you have a more specific market and feel confident in your ability to vet deals try it out. happy to talk more my info is in my signature. we work directly with them to sell new builds and no organization is perfect but I have good things to say about them as a builder and potential build to rent developer that sells build to rent triplexes and single family homes through them to end buyers in California like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and San Diego 

Detroit offers solid cash flow potential, a relatively low barrier to entry, and the market fundamentals are improving with a growing population and significant investments in the city.Since you’re based in upstate NY, Detroit is also a quick and easy flight, making it easier to visit and get a feel for the market if you’re considering out-of-state investing.

It’s important to do your due diligence on the specific properties and local market conditions to ensure they meet your investment goals.If you'd like more information on how to finance these types of properties feel free to DM me.

Need to spend some quality time roaming around here to get a feel for it.Tony

Remember, the notion of amassing wealth without investing is a dangerous myth perpetuated by self-proclaimed experts.

I will ask the seller for a concession to replace the wiring, which could be $10k-$30k, but I have a feeling they will reject. 

I feel as though I am more on the introverted side.

I don’t care if you steal a property, high quality tenants will never sacrifice on being safe and feeling safe.
