We recently relocated to Phoenix last summer and I'm starting to look for recommendations for local credit unions here in Phoenix which are trustworthy, low rates, personal touch, easy/simple to work with, etc. 

So if you discount a small amount to get rolling, that is something that can work, but don't want to stay low for long.You will start to get the dregs staying at your place and they can do some real damage to the place.

That seems low with the 5 units and storage you mentioned unless they are 1 bed units. 

We plan to stay in the new primary residence for a long time because we love the location, the neighborhood, and the land.

The appraiser gave the house a low score so the bank said it is a risky investment for them and gave me a 70% loan.

Analyzing the neighborhood and the asset condition is the key to projecting accurate returns. 

I really would want to stay away from any office properties in depressed or even semi-depressed neighborhoods, especially large ones (like a 13 unit complex).

Prior to my experience with Safeguard Capital Partners, I was a buyer of distressed multi-family properties in my immediate neighborhood in St.

We’ve tried other platforms on the market, but the message delivery rates were very low compared to the 85%+ I get here.

I joined this community because I want to get my hands dirty and not just meet people online but form some real connections and try to provide value back to those that are willing to offer me advise and guidance, and even encouragement.So, this is my current situation:Back in 2020 I was one of the fortunate ones who purchased real estate when prices were still low (compared to today) and interest rates where at 3% or below.
