I've been in San Antonio since last Oct.

.: Quote from @Donald Hatter: Option 2 is the last option I would suggest.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

But, these broad market studies are so large, they are almost meaningless, in the real world.Between glut of new supply in many "hot" markets coming online, a continually softening economic outlook, inflation over last couple years making day to day items feel cost prohibitive, many average renters are strapped and seeking lower cost housing.  

Lets you see if your amazing loan officer was a barista just 6 months ago  ;)Last, consider working with a broker instead of a small lender.

This is prime real estate, and is just about the last piece of land in this area.I have begun to develop a commercial property that I own with contractor garages, which is the extent of my experience in this space.I'm trying to get a sense of how to structure something like this, with using LP's, and also partnering with a builder, and carving something out in that regard.Does anyone have recommendations on who is currently working in this space and could provide some insight?

There is a meet-up on the last Thursday of every month.

Quote from @Mackaylee Beach: I think these times (the last two years), and this year are the ones that will give birth to some of the best investors.

Was at one last week that included City of Calgary who did a presentation on legalizing illegal suites and accessory suites in general
