Inventory should increase and prices should dip.

The demographics and map data don't take the students into account, but they're really what's driving the market.Low property values and ever-increasing student rents are a recipe for a market when you can pick up a duplex in decent condition for $150k, and rent it for $500/bed (that's an EGI of $36,000 annually for a 3/3 duplex).

Quote from @Landon Whitt: Is anyone seeing a sizable increase in pre-foreclosures in their market yet?

After these meetings, the GC often asks the subs to increase their bid.

I’ve used seller financing as both a buyer and a seller and it can make a lot of sense in certain circumstances (for example I used it as a buyer when I reached the maximum number of conventional loans I could get, and I’ve used it as a seller to both increase my net proceeds (due to collecting interest as “the bank” in addition to the sales proceeds) and to lessen my capital gains tax hit by spreading it out over a few years).

I hope that makes sense as i'm trying to better understand how to go through this process the right way and increase my chances of approval. 

I just do not want to take this possibility off the table if it could help us really get moving in terms of number of doors we have rented out (a 2/3/4 door rental is an exponential increase in our cash flow, compared to the single family home we are planning to buy first). 

Over the past two years I've been averaging around 25 to 30% on these, a year since as interest rates Rise this causes an increase in the BDC's net interest margin or profits, so you get capital appreciation of the stock price plus 12 to 14 per cent year dividends paid out.

Now there was an increase in the bill to 1,755$ for 3 months.

First - you have to mention what the syndication will do as that will have an impact on how you get taxed.Given that this is a real estate forum, it is assumed that you are investing in a syndication that will invest in real estate.Most real estate syndications purchase real estate in year 1 and have a plan of selling / exiting in year 5 or 7.Often times, the sponsor will get a cost segregation study which increases the loss on the K-1 presented to the investor in year 1.This may be important as it almost guarantees that there will be no taxable income from the syndication from year 1 to the year before exit.If the syndication does well and exits at a price more than purchase, it may result in a taxable income.
