Traditional deals often don’t excite investors—offering $200/month in cash flow isn’t very compelling.But with co-living, you can offer 5X the returns, making it much easier to secure funding.Now, instead of asking an investor to put up a 20% down payment for $200/month cash flow, you can pitch them a 5% down investment yielding $1,000+/month—a much more attractive deal.Why Co-Living is the FutureCo-living isn’t just another strategy—it’s a high-demand, high-cash-flow, lower-risk investment model that aligns with today’s rental market trends.

Nice…You can’t offer less for a property full of fire rubble (lead and asbestos?)

This just protects our investment until probate is finished.Get creative with your offers you never know what will interest a seller.Have a conversation and find out their needs if you can before making offers.

Note: The BiggerPockets Calculators do not offer me what a goodl ol' fashion Excel spreadsheet might.

This is limiting my options.I have never utilized the multifamily lending products offered by Fannie, Freddie, etc., so I would be interested to a) hear other BP members' lender recommendations for this sized property and also b) other members' experiences working with Fannie, Freddie, etc.  

@Dylan FraembsThe Providence market offers solid opportunities, especially in multi-family and value-add deals.

It’s a city I know well because I built a 12-door portfolio there between 2019 and 2021.Detroit offers a lot of value in terms of affordability and rental demand.

I offered to break the lease but tenant did not take it. 

Given the competitive market at the time, every property was receiving multiple offers, and securing a deal required both strategy and speed.

As a property management company ourselves, we use Guesty, which offers an Owner Portal.
