Lastly, don't overlook any local regulations or HOA restrictions if any.

Hi All,Question for you pros, and maybe I'm thinking too deeply on this, but does Dodd-Frank (or its attendant regulations) set any restrictions on purchasing mortgage notes, or only on loan origination? 

Congratulations on your inaugural post – it's like your first step on the moon, but with less risk of tripping over a rock and more about not tripping over real estate regulations.

DMU is the closest to a campus environment, but it's small and it will be relocating to West Des Moines soon so I'm not sure what that means for those apartments...Maybe Ames is worth a look if you are actually looking for college rentals. 

(If your project is primarily housing or incorporates housing specific funding sources, you will need to apply through the Department of Housing rather than through this program.)The funding sources that a project can receive include the Chicago Recovery Plan (CRP), Housing and Economic Development Bond (HED), Neighborhood Opportunity Fund (NOF), and Tax Increment Financing (TIF) which have all been combined into a single, streamlined grant program with unified rules and regulations.

As you've mentioned, markets have experienced staggering increases, sometimes in the triple digits, due to natural disasters, inflation, and changes in the insurance industry.Adjusting ExpectationsIn my opinion, underwriting for 5-10% YOY increases seems much more aligned with the current environment.
