Hi - typically Mixed Use properties are going to require a traditional commercial real estate loan from a bank, small balance commercial private lender or for the larger ones a CMBS style loan.However, a newer "DSCR Loan" product for Mixed Use is making a comeback - which is a really great option for smaller properties/more beginner investors since it has all the same trappings as a residential DSCR Loan (30-year fixed, easy qualification, straightforward process) for a property with commercial units.Generally going to be limited to 8 units max and has to be primarily residential in every way (majority residential by units, square footage and rents) but if it fits all that, its a great option

PMs who take time to teach tenants how to change out the air filters or how to shut off the main water or how to reset the breaker that trips will not only reduce service calls but will keep capital expenses down (changing out air filters regularly can diminish the chances of having to replace the condenser coils, for example).Maintenance repair surcharges isn't the only charge owners should look for in their PM agreements, but it is one of the more important ones that often gets overlooked.  

I started speaking at real estate and note conferences and realized that the people that were teaching note investing had absolutely zero credit background themselves.

If we were to see major changes in zoning and redevelopment we could see some LA style gentrification of neighborhoods.

I talked to him and he said he does not teach how to build.
