Most guests are willing to provide feedback, especially given the upfront touches/relationship we try and drive initially. 

Outside of real estate, I enjoy bodybuilding, working on cars, and anything that keeps me physically active outdoors, which helps me remain grounded and focused.I'm looking forward to networking, exchanging ideas, and building lasting relationships in this community.

I'm interested in learning a bit more about typical vacancy percentages, size of the local population being serviced, reasonable percentage of effective gross income for expenses, etc. as well Peter.Hopefully some experienced member(s) will sound off!

Quote from @Rob Williams: Hi everyone,I’m looking for advice on effective ways to connect with private investors locally interested in senior living land development.

I’m looking forward to learning and building relationships within this space and beyond.I’m so excited to start this new journey!

Short term, assuming the real estate lobby doesn't sue this to keep delaying/appealing, once it goes into effect there will be no more broker fees paid by tenant *unless they hire the broker*Some long term effects I can predict already: - Landlords now having to absorb broker fees will bake this into the rent (e.g. how "no fee" units typically are priced a little higher than other units) - Real estate board will require another document (or checkbox) for tenants to sign stating that they're hiring the listing broker and responsible for compensating them for their fee *if* they apply and are approved- Regular New Yorkers will have an even harder time to find an apartment because you cannot legislate/regulate away a housing crises... 

We always get that permission in writing, though, to cover our bases.All in all, I recommend nurturing these relationships as these are among the best clients to serve in the MTR space.

This is definitely not the cheapest way to get leads, but it is effective. 

Consider transferring to an LLC after occupancy, keeping the due-on-sale clause in mind.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.
