Duplexes or small multifamily properties, even with value-add strategies, rarely match the potential of single-family homes in the right neighborhoods.In summary:Don’t be discouraged by low cap rates—they reflect market expectations of future growth.Focus on single-family homes with high equity potential in desirable areas.Avoid chasing the "economy of scale" myth with small multifamily properties—they often come with higher turnover and lower buyer appeal.Think long-term: prioritize properties that grow in value, even if cash flow is tight at first.

I think the shift toward risk-on assets is lowering demand for safer investments like T-Bills, especially as investors look to outrun inflation beyond what CPI numbers reflect.

My ARVs are also reflective of those factors. 

The rent point reflects low rent growth.  

Holding investor funds without a clear and reliable process for withdrawal reflects poorly on RAD’s reputation and calls into question the ethical nature of its practices.

Mention a payment schedule that reflects project progress and key milestones, such as rough inspections passed or drywall completed.
