However, multifamily properties may offer more considerable long-term rewards if you're ready to take on the challenges of maintaining numerous units and are interested in gradually creating a larger revenue stream.The optimal decision ultimately comes down to your own investment objectives, risk tolerance, managerial skills, and the particular market dynamics of the regions you're thinking about.

@Patrick Chafe You need to sit back and objectively think why does it make sense to hold property.

FSBO, expired leads, local homeowners)- Nurture your network consistently via phone, email, text, in-person events- Set as many appointments as you can to get in front of people and explain your value proposition... then go back to nurturing the contact until they have a question or need something from you- While doing all of the above, try to avoid/ignore the 'shiny objects' that are sold to agents on a daily basis. 

Thank you both for the input, the majority of our current buyers list has been achieved mostly as you all mentioned, just through organic networking and marketing but wanted to explore other options if they were proving fruitful for others.Instead, you all have confirmed what I already sort of thought. 

I am wondering how the experienced investors out there weigh's in on joining the local REIA organizations.

The actual "act of syndication" is as old as time, but as we know it, the term is becoming more curated towards GP LP capital raises for CRE assets in the public eye.Syndication simply refers to the process of pooling together resources or investments from multiple individuals, entities, or organizations to collectively finance and participate in a particular venture, project, or investment opportunity (not just real estate)...I mean... the term syndication actually came from media syndications in the early 19th century so this statement is quite vague albeit.

What's the likelihood that the CA duplex increases in value organically?

Don't get enamored and distracted with the shiny object...the deal has to make sense and be underwritten properly.
