If you're in MKE, then you'll probably want to connect with @Shawn Ackerman.Do you a price range you're targeting and are you looking for a turn-key property or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?

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

And what are you targeting for your price range?

Try being an agent, your phone number is EVERYWHERE and you get targeted by a whole industry that wants to sell you the latest gimmick.Here is what helped me.I answer calls and when it's a telemarketer I will interrupt them and say very friendly (because I don't hate the poor person who gets paid to do this and coached to be ruthless): Hey, so glad you called, can you do me a big favor? 

We are chasing add value apartment complexes of 32 units or more, priced between 3.2M - 4.8M, purchasing all cash while using SOFR or Fannie as contingencies, targeting a 6-8% cap upon entry and want to operate sub 5% for stabilization.

What’s considered a reasonable target for a property in a high equity growth market like this?

I'd be looking at multiple structures. we try to build below the average new build cost in our market in Columbus Ohio which is 515,000 last year and we target land 40-50k and urban core adjacent where we get higher price per square foot. we build for clients with margin around $190 a sq ft depending on multi or single. we can get that down in our triplex it's a little higher on our single family homes because of garages and limited economies of scale. hope that helps. idk Philly but if you show me the area and styles of homes I can give you some more insights. 

Target ReturnsWhile target returns are crucial, these should be discussed only with investors—not brokers or others helping you find deals.Sample Investment CriteriaHere’s an example of well-defined CCC:Location: Primary and secondary cities in the Southeast with population growth.Type & Class: Class C garden-style or walk-up workforce housing with repositioning opportunities.Age: 1980s construction or newer (case-by-case for older).Price: $5M–$12M, requiring $1.5M–$3M in funds.Size: 100+ units.Cap Rates: Market rates.Roof Type: Pitched roofs preferred.Value-Add: Opportunities for improvements or better management.Why This MattersBy creating crystal clear criteria, you:Avoid wasting time on deals that don’t align with your goals.Build trust with brokers and partners by demonstrating a focused investment strategy.Increase your chances of finding deals that meet your financial and operational objectives.I'll be posting each chapter as I go through them so you can follow along from my notes and we can discuss different strategies.

Are there any specific neighborhoods you are targeting? 

What price range are you targeting and I take it you're OK with at least medium rehab (>=25% of the PP)?
