If you're looking to possibly get hard numbers, I would recommend contacting @Albert Bui, he is a mortgage planner who I believe operates out of the South Puget Sound region and is used to working with investors.I would also look to get in contact with a good real estate agent, one who can help you start to figure out what you should pay for a given space.Cheers, and keep asking questions of the community!

Once they reach a certain size counties and cities have a DRI ( direction of regional impact ) review.

I've been working with a regional bank for about a year and half.

Is it possible to buy notes directly from regional banks? 

I'm a new investor in Atlanta -- currently, I own seven doors in the metro region.

Not just in Atlanta (though that's where I'm based) but in other states and regions as well. 

I haven't seen that kind of growth in less fashionable suburbs and sprawl markets.As a resident of the most hyped urban region, I see people trying to hold onto a dream of ownership that encompasses their love for an area.

Philly Business Journal (regional), and Morethanthecurve.com (conshohockens/Plymouth/Whitemarsh) are other publications worth reading for insights.

(CMBS would be the other option) Generally, the best options for smaller parks in smaller markets will be local and regional banks, and these will usually include recourse.

For starters, we have some of the lowest non-owner-occupied rates in the region: Under 50%, as opposed to the regional average of about 65%, and with nearby Seattle bursting at the seams, tenant demand is strong and should stay that way.
