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

This fall is the best time of year to buy a house in *my opinion* because you have less competition and often more leverage than during the heat of summer.

Myself and family truly loved the property and house; just want others opinions on if this may be a mistake to proceed, or does this appear common practice for the age and location (upstate New York). 

I've syndicated multifamily offerings myself, and I have deep seated opinions in underwriting and asset management.There's one thing I seems to be consistent across the industry that I vehemently disagree with, and that's the expense escalator(YOY increases) for insurance.I STILL see people underwriting for 3% YOY insurance increases.

I just don't think it's worth it, but that's my opinion. 

While a deposit is almost always preferable, you should make a common sense business decision based on the circumstances and condition of the property, in my opinion.

I also advise getting a second lawyers opinion as we all aren't lawyers. 

I am new here so this is the first time I heard of this event so curious if they are worth attending and your opinion.  

@Dawn W.There will always be varying opinions on whether long-term or short-term rentals are better, but here’s my personal take.I favor long-term rentals because they make the investment more passive.

Looking for opinions on build-to-rent companies such as https://southernimpressionhomes.com/ and https://invest5s.com/portfolio/.Are they a good option for investing in areas away from your home base?
