Are you just consolidating? 

When they get weaker I will look to consolidate and pay down debt.

More consolidation by the biggest banks and asset management company. 

The process you are referring to is what we call a consolidation exchange, where you would sell multiple properties to buy a  larger property.

I am in a debt consolidation program, and I ask myself, how can I invest if I cant take on debt until this program is paid off.

@John Kunickundefined You need to consolidate then.

All of these  software programs will consolidate your operations down to one system, give you a portal for tenant communication, maintenance tracking, document storage, etc.

For example (all data YoY)Wisconsin 6.01%West Allis: 1%Wauwatosa: 11.9%Shorewood: 13%City of Milwaukee: 11%West Allis stands out, because it has been the HOTTEST market last year, so looks like it's consolidating this year.The April lunch&learn for the RPA will be about Milwaukee rent growth and increases.
