@Hyrum Shiner There’s way too many great deals to get caught up rushing to buy one.

Multifamily properties  are made up of smaller apartments — mostly 1BR or 2BR units.That usually means the tenant base is made up of students, young couples, or people in transition rather than stable long-term families.The issue I see is that this often leads to high tenant turnover, more maintenance, more management headaches, and ultimately less cash flow than what the spreadsheet shows.For those of you who own or manage  multifamily properties — how do you deal with this?

Quote from @Jeff Mooney: @Chris Seveney looking to see if somehow I can take over that 3.5% rate Just because you can take over the rate does not mean its a good deal, I am not seeing where this is a great deal.

If you’ve been on this forum lately, you’ve seen about 47 posts starting with:“I’m building an AI tool to analyze deals…”This is not one of those.I used to be VP of Digital Product at a large retailer and got my real estate license a few years ago for fun and investment opportunities.  

All needs looked at closely before a deal is determined. 

Quote from @Lucas Hannon: Hey everyone, I’ve been diving into creative financing lately  especially seller finance and subject-to deals and I’m trying to really understand how they work in real-world situations.I wanted to ask the community: Have any of you closed a deal using creative financing (seller finance, sub2, lease option, etc.)?

I work primarily in multifamily and short-term rental investing — and over time, I’ve had many conversations with investors about the unfiltered side of real estate: the deals that didn’t go according to plan.Whether it’s unexpected costs, regulatory curveballs, or guest and tenant issues that test your patience, these stories always seem to reveal the same truth — the best investors aren’t just great at finding opportunities; they’re great at managing chaos.Through my investor interviews and real-world deal analyses, I’ve noticed that every “horror story” tends to leave behind one valuable thing: a framework for better decision-making.

I see investors follow different timelines depending on the market and team they work with.
What’s your typical turnaround time?
Love learning from others’ strategies and processes.

Not asking for specifics, but generally speaking —
Which regions or types of neighborhoods are you seeing the best spreads for flips or rentals?
Just trying to learn how different markets are behaving.
