@Bill F.Absolutely correct, leverage juices returns but does the same to losses. 

The juice may not be worth the squeeze if your goal is to invest for yourself.8.

But ask, what's tied at the hip to those in CRE of "power" but, without that "juice" to get bailed out?

That company went belly-up during the last crash long before this guru even thought about real estate investment let alone finance.

I feel pretty sure that the single home only is county so I would check that.You need to decide if the juice is worth the squeeze. 

Also, check the electrical panel and amt of juice per unit. 

That juice may not be worth the squeeze for most.As a result, the majority of investors are looking at BRRRR's for long term buy and holds in Detroit.Happy to talk through the nuances or send you some Detroit specific resources.

Some might have a strong NNN tenant in place with 10+ years left on the lease, and it might be a big corporation that you can take to court if they ghost on paying their rent, while others might be office suites broken up into small offices on 6-36 month leases with shaky tenants like a nutrition supplement MLM that uses the office for 3x a week rah rah meetings on how to recruit more people into the pyramid scheme, that are immune to law suits b/c you can't squeeze juice out of a rock.

When you are forming all sorts of small partnerships with no real "corporate" backing and pooled asset base to provide security for the counterparty, typically you can't get a swap.right so one of this big group that brought swap is making huge win when rate is going up, i would not reveal their name, you are right it's not for everyone juice. but for us small LP, investing to those big group and the small newbie sndication, is just about the same.for swap, i read in pensford website and they are really sophisticated, leant tons about interest rate.

Previously, we were able to obtain a 10 cap without undue risk (about 5 years ago); the. 3 or 4 years ago we were able to purchase at 7-8 cap and “juice” returns by borrowing 50% at 4% fixed 20 year financing.
