But to really answer your question - from an outsider's view - things have tightened up and continue to be tight....deals are harder to find, and interest rates make some good deals just average.  

Good luck on your journey!!!

A realtor doing high volume, you don't have to use one you can poll 3-5 agents see what they do to get you the comps and then pick that person to help you.

They are typically less profitable as condos do not appreciate as good as single families.

Sharing that room will raise bring in 50% more.  50% is good. 

Traditional deals often don’t excite investors—offering $200/month in cash flow isn’t very compelling.But with co-living, you can offer 5X the returns, making it much easier to secure funding.Now, instead of asking an investor to put up a 20% down payment for $200/month cash flow, you can pitch them a 5% down investment yielding $1,000+/month—a much more attractive deal.Why Co-Living is the FutureCo-living isn’t just another strategy—it’s a high-demand, high-cash-flow, lower-risk investment model that aligns with today’s rental market trends.

If you know what to do you are able to find good deals in any strategy here in Spain.

My main concern is the interest rates being so high now as to whether what I'm hoping to achieve is really even possible. 

I have deals of all kinds, right now on my last three deals for some weird reason one come from wholesaler, the second from MLS and the third knocking a door.Having a partner in looking for deals is critical so you can brainstorm and make sure that is indeed a good deal.

So I've been wanting too go out a network with investors and loaners/lenders but I don't know if their is any events that is real estate and commercial real estate investing based events in DC, does anyone know any events in the DMV that is good too join?
