EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

I expect to outperform these numbers.

The new facility, dubbed "Arsenal 1," will encompass 5 million square feet and is expected to start manufacturing operations by July 2026.

If you're already stretched thin and expecting to hit 15-20 properties by year-end, hiring by summer makes sense, specially if revenue can support it.

ARV Potential: Where can we expect to achieve higher ARVs?

Tenants with bad credit know it and are expecting you to ask for a larger deposit.

The rental market is expected to stay flat or soft through 2025, then is estimated to start appreciating again once the new supply of multifamily housing reaches traditional occupancy levels.

My guess solely looking at your numbers is that it's an older/distressed property which means you have to account for more costs in capex. 2nd thought being it's not in the best of neighborhood then you'd have to take into consideration lower quality tenants/ neighbors and maybe increase expected vacancy and late payments.

I would say from my experience flipping myself and seeing through my clients' projects that the main things in this market you need to be aware of is that houses are taking time to sell, they're selling for less than expected, and they need to be quality.

Hopefully, you find it helpful and qualifies us to assist you with your goals:)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
