We have been working in the affordable housing space for some time, and this allowed us to partner with the local community and provide a housing solution they need as their city continues to expand with new jobs they are successfully bringing to town.

Just basic face to face talks with people soon to be friends.

I don't want to name the REIT we dislike, but if you want to talk more about this offline shoot me a DM.As far as investor profile, it really comes down to someone's individual circumstances and what they're trying to achieve. 

@Corby Goade that definitely helps and since you're a developer I would love to connect and discuss one of the deals I was talking about as it is a commercial property and see what your take on it might be.

Let me know if you'd like to talk. - Robert

I'm local to Stamford and always willing to talk about the market or anything relating to real estate in general, feel free to reach out.

But if you only have one rental and you get a bad tenant you are sunk.Read the laws and talk to some mom/pop landlords with decades of experience.

My 2 cents is prices are crazy inflated right now, but believe it or not I think it will continue because of continued demand pressure for the area from people fleeing higher cost of living areas and moving there, with access to 87/17.

I've seen a lot of talk about house hacking and while I believe that I understand the list of it, I'm just not confident to start.

I’d love to connect with local real estate agents, lenders, and contractors who can help me navigate this journey.I’m continuing to educate myself on finding, analyzing, and financing deals, and I’m excited to hear any advice or recommendations the community has to offer.Thank you for reading, and I look forward to connecting with many of you!
