My investors have had much safer returns buying "done" versions instead of doing the rehab themselves because of the cost, time, and knowledge.

A Walgreens with 25 yrs of lease left and 5x5yr extensions will be "safer" than a stand-alone mom and pop restaurant with a 5 yr lease and no experience in the restaurant business.  

Together, we can demand better enforcement of their policies and ensure safer living conditions for everyone involved.Please comment below or message me directly if you are interested in joining this effort or if you have any questions.

That means that for the PITI payment, there are better areas that a little more safer in the city of San Antonio, so why buy in this exact area and risk it.Overall, I did make a profit on this project.

Our beaches will always draw plenty of visitors in my opinion and are a safer bet because of limited land and fewer properties available to convert to STR. 

How hard will it be to bet appropriate permits for the alterations (2 rooms and bathroom). 

Definitely going to be safer going forward.

You should look at it from business cycle and cap rate cycle , I could send you some charts when it ks more safer to invest at syndication….The risk when market at cap rate 4 compare to when market is at cap rate 6 is vastly different , you may want to wait until cap rates are stabilizing enough before investing so your risk / reward ratio is way higher.also you need dig deeper into supply/demand in the apt market as we are now on highest supply where there is strong pressure to rent growth.

Right now I would imagine you're best bet is a small balance Freddie or fannie loans depending on loan size and location.

No current liens but these properties have tax deeds, not warranty deeds if that matters.That as-is value is going to make obtaining financing more difficult for sure.Financing options drop off pretty steeply below a certain dollar amount because foreclosure costs for lenders can be significant.Your best bet may be to connect with some local private lenders (local investor meetups/referrals are a good starting point for this) or local banks.
