If you have an agent in the market or someone that you trust you should have them post physical notice that you are trying to reach them (and pay that person for their time).

and am planning to see a few recently built 4/3-4's with finished lower level in good family locations.

This is just a high level, general statement.Conceptually, selling separately sounds like a bad idea.

Higher Yields: With distress levels rising, project sponsors are willing to offer more attractive terms to secure the capital they need to stabilize their projects.

Private money, depending on your relationship and level of expertise, could lay between 8-12 percent straight.

Great agents bring knowledge, insight, trust, and experience.
