I am in Milwaukee, very hot rental market.Whenever you have an issue like this, think with an XLS and project dollars, for example:- 2 months lost rent: 2 x $2000- 5% lower purchase price: $15,000 

I found it researching after many months.

All of that took about 6 months. 

There is absolutely no buy and hold market in this though seeing as the jungle takes it back within 6 months if you don't do anything with it. 

There are a lot of good meetups for real estate investors in the area that would be good to grow your network and learn from others that are and have been in your shoes as a new investor, message me and I can share on some specific monthly meetups.Also sharing some multifamily data, this is Boston proper so it has an interesting trend compared to the rest of Massachusetts.

After the loan is drawndown I need to immediately start making monthly payments for the next 60 months.

Are there a decent amount coming on the market, or is there like 1 a month?
