Unfortunately, many financial institution were doing the same, and regulators were asleep at the wheel.Ackman’s key objectives for ending conservatorship are:- Maintain the availability / affordability of the 30-year, fixed-rate,prepayable mortgage.- Protect taxpayers from bearing the cost of a housing downturn.- Minimize government involvement in the housing finance system.- Maximize probability of successful private capital raise.- Maximize taxpayers’ profits on Treasury’s investment in the GSEs.Ackman’s key steps to ending conservatorship are:- Set appropriate capital requirements.- Limit government-granted benefits.- Develop market-based compensation and governance policies.- Clarify the nature of ongoing government backstop (implicit and/or explicit).When could this happen?

What price range are you comfortable with?

It is in a desirable area of town, in the same sector/neighborhood of properties ranging from 500k-1.5million.

In CA, construction costs are high, but I think outside of the state, you could hopefully get somewhere in the $150-$250/sq ft range for the vertical. 

@Nadeem AlamgirHi Nadeem, Thank you for your reply, and it’s nice to meet you.What do you suggest I do if I can’t find sales comps in the 10-20 year range you speak of?

Congratulations on the duplex -My investor clients have acquired several multi-family investment properties locally in the market I operate in Northwest Indiana - Figure out your personal investment objective for the next 4 years and align yourself with the next property that make sense in this current market environment-

Hi MichaelFor a seller-financed deal, especially for a multifamily property like a six-unit or larger, a typical down payment could range from 10% to 20%, depending on the terms you negotiate with the seller.

It's a range and depends on the property type, location, end condition and rental strategy. 

So what that means is many properties for value are not tied to what debt in that range you can get on them or if interest rates rise in the market.

Things like quartz countertops, LVP flooring, and neutral color palettes appeal to a wide range of buyers.
