.- In some markets, that are growing quickly, with great jobs and lots of inbound migration, this could be a little higher - like 4-5% per year over long time periods as demand outpaces supply.

We absolutely prioritize growing our clients portfolios and they still account for close to 65% of our monthly closings.  

This influx of workers will naturally drive demand for housing, retail, and other services in the surrounding areas, especially in smaller towns and cities that haven't seen major growth in decades.

I like the idea of diversification of my investments and I love the strategy BAM has articulated: the focus on properties with below market rents in growing areas with jobs and good schools. 

On a side note: As a new investor myself I am looking to grow my relationships, especially with contracotrs, and would love to hear about your work.

I joined after reading 5-6 of the BP authored books and I've loved growing my understanding of the world of real estate investing.I made my first investment this summer and my family is partnering to make a few investments in the next year.

Plus our population is growing steadily which helps maintain property values and rental demand.

At that point you will be using the cash from appreciation/equity instead of your funds.Each time pulling out the intial capital and enough to put down on another property growing your REI protfolio. 

Looking forward to learning and growing along the way.Best,Dan Hi Dan, welcome to the BP group, any certain type of RE investing appeal to you?

Vet potential partners carefully and aim for relationships that can grow with your portfolio.In this higher interest rate environment, focus on cash flow and creative financing options like the HomeStyle rehab loan or seller financing.
