very happy with my sfr so far plan on buying more ..I m dealing with Midwest equities and I highly recommend them..total transparency.Looking toward the future seems,there is little info on larger multi unit opportunities.. for instance is thier a company out thier that specializes in that segment 

Our partners theory is that it all depends what segment of the apt market you are in and your strategy.  

When you cross the $2000 level you are into a segment of the market where many renters have the monthly cash flow to purchase.  

Some people in that segment have still not done much updating since they bought 18 years + ago.

This again, will lower the demand for luxury units.Follow your supply curve: a glut at the top lowers prices allowing the not-quite-uber wealthy to move up a segment and everyone below follows suit.

That's the beauty of the industry, there's so many sub-segments to it.

@David Dachtera  I'm just trying to get a better understanding, it's all just so confusing.Back before and shortly after the crash, we saw a whole segment of the market pop up around short sale flipping.

Im a multi family investor in philadelphia i know that segment of the market well since i have specialozed in it.

We operate in a "niche"...We are a HUD authorized real estate brokerage that works almost exclusively with investors (both wholesalers and rehabbers) helping them acquire undervalued properties.Lately we have had a lot of interest from new investors that are excited about the market segment and can't wait to dive in, but have a potential entry level problem...

The market segment is far more than the simple results of "what do I buy" and you nailed it IMO.To your list I might add, "Pick a tenant type" and buy & market for them.
