If you're considering BRRRR, the FHA 203(k) loan could work for bundled purchase and renovation, but it’s often simpler to use personal funds for lighter rehab projects.You could focus on properties with strong rental potential and manageable upgrades to increase value.

As home prices or interest rates increase, fewer people can afford to purchase homes, forcing them to rent.

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. 

Inventory should increase and prices should dip.

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). 

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

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

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).

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. 

The problem is that the number of middle income seniors, aged 75+ years old will increase from 8 million to 14 million in 5 years (by 2029).
