Blindsided by the financial technology sector that has produced successes like PayPal, big banks are struggling to keep up the pace.

The craftsmanship is quality and they work clean and at a very good pace. 

It's true my cap rates are low (3.6%) because I have long-term tenants and  tend not to keep pace with market rates.

Anyway, due diligence is a checklist process...and the first 3-days in contract are fast paced to keep you protected....the initial goal is to preserve your capital...that means a contract clause requesting an agent walk through with copies of all leases, rent roll, and income and expense reports within 48-hours is standard.

Waiting & saving more for down payment leaves me stuck renting my personal residence and potentially can't keep pace with market pricesI'm considering putting my rental purchase on hold and buying a personal residence first to secure my financial health but this still leaves me at square 1 with my investing journey.

We currently have 1 rental unit, but see the opportunity to purchase more in this fast paced market.

Of course, we’ve only been up and running on our first for a few months so take that for what it’s worth, but we’ve been on pace with our projections so far.
