I live and invest in the Lafayette area myself - I own several in the area - broussard, freetown, broadmoor etc There's a decent market here, I think it's somewhat competitive but there is some availability as wellOff-market is the way to go 100%Purchasing a starter home is a great way to get started - I turned my first home into a rental before I even looked into real estate investing.

There aren't any good wholesalers in the Cleveland market.

The best way to learn the multifamily market is to purchase a multifamily property.

Thank you,Phil Don’t have any experience with the mentioned mentors, but I do have 45 years experience in commercial real estate investing.Flipping (wholesaling) commercial properties require the same base of knowledge (real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance) that is a foundational requirement for flipping residential properties; PLUS, extensive knowledge of the commercial property TYPE one is trying to engage with, and extensive knowledge of the local real estate market for the subject property type. 

Would love to hear more about your plans and see how the market is shaping up for investors.

I'm really looking forward to your blog and hearing about your experiences in these markets.

I took my thrashing as you know in 2020  I do know some of my clients that sell turnkey have been keeping the houses and doing BRRRR instead of selling them to investors that part of the market has slowed signficantly for many in that industry.

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

You picked a great community to join.. have you checked out local comps to gauge the market vibe yet?

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.
