That's because Miliarakis caters to a very specific segment of buyers: prosperous Chinese with an eye toward acquiring foreign properties.

But it also seems highly dependent on HOW you run your hotel business.There's also some thought on which segment of the AirBnB market to be in - small, mid, large.

They can also work a couple different owner segments. 

They may not segment their email lists that small, but it's worth asking.

I moved from the residential broker market to the fix and flip segment in 2008.

That market segment is not going away here in Texas no matter what happens to the housing market.  

I've not even tried to jump into this segment yet.

Usually a maximum LTV of 70% or 75% is common in the commercial/investor property segment at a non-bank lender.

There is and will continue to be ripple effect throughout other new construction apartments around seattle,   but if you are in a different market segment  (older /  more affordable apartments, non-core neighborhoods,   or SFR's as are I suspect most investors on this forum)  I'm guessing it won't make too much difference.  

I just received all of my course material from Allied Real Estate Schools and was wondering if anyone else was starting their 180 hour segment around the same time and if you would be interested in a study group to push/help each other?
