Battery Park City Exchange (New York City): The city of New York engaged in a land swap with the Battery Park City Authority, allowing for the creation of a new public school and affordable housing units in exchange for a parcel of land that was then developed into a high-value commercial property. 5.

Hi BP Family "I’m working on a 15-unit multi-family deal with strong rental & value-add potential.

With countless loan options, complex terms, and strict lending criteria, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

This might give a one-time (non-scalable) boost to cash flow, offer multiple value-add options, and allow the house-hacker peace of mind, via the assumed mortgage, in long-term breakeven or positive cash flow in the event that the value-add plans end up not being executed, and/or the person has to move out, and rent by the room or STR become unavailable for some reason at a future date.

We were initially looking out of state for a potential move and or investment property just because the property taxes without being able to homestead, plus high cost of insurance, and harsh weather on homes made me feel like it might not be worth it.

From updated tenant rights laws to shifting zoning regulations, staying compliant can feel like a moving target.

Great, What's your average value/door?

Your "clients" will disproportionately be elderly people who you will be taught to "help" - somehow you convincing them not to take market value by listing their home, or selling it subject-to, is "help".- In between finding these "clients" you "help solve a problem for" (in the language of the gurus), you will be angrily dismissed by hundreds or thousands of people, if you are able to get into contact with them. - In the extremely unlikely event that you get a property under contract, your assignment fee, in many locations, and probably on average, will be less than the commission a licensed broker would have received for selling the property. - You will be at risk of breaking the law, as many states are creating laws that effectively ban wholesaling, and while wholesaling gurus claim that this is not the case, they are either lying or deluded.

I hate to say it but it's starting to feel a bit like 2007, with sub2 being the new subprime mortgage...It's too small of a percentage of loans for that to be where the bottom falls out.

It balances stability with potential for appreciation, especially if you find a reliable tenant.On the other hand, for investors with time, experience, and a willingness to take on higher risk, active strategies like value-add projects or flipping might yield quicker returns but require deeper involvement.
