I do engagement marketing in a trades focused field lending me to having very good relationships with tradespeople whom I consider friends- and I trust thoroughly.

@Martin Manning To add onto what others have shared, in the most simplistic terms, apartment complex values are based on Net Operating Income, or NOI, and the cap rate.Price = NOI / Cap RateSo, if an apartment complex has an NOI of $100,000 and a market cap rate of 10%, the value is $1,000,000.Listing agents for complexes love to price based on a pro-forma, which is utter nonsense (unless you're in Austin, in which case apartment complexes apparently have floors made of gold).

The Japanese market is different in that it is a high yield cash flow market, non speculative investing.

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

I started my real estate career in 2014 working in marketing at PPR Note Co. with Dave Van Horn.

If you're looking to connect I am happy to chat about this market and find a property within your goals.

How true is this, and how could that affect my real estate strategy if I were to enter the Texas market as a Washington State resident?

At what point do you start marketing?

This is a good opportunity in a strong market, and with your excellent credit and HELOC funds, you’re in a great position to make this project happen.
