This crowdfunding movement is really amazing and promises to make the commercial RE market more efficient.

It’s a pleasure to join the movement.

As for all the meet-ups and what-not, yeah I disagree, I find those to be great places to perpetually talk about things vs actually do.

The motivation for the change can be that the previous thing had run its course or that the next thing carries big two-way risks.Good coverage ahead of tomorrow's big CPI print, shaping up to be the first big movement day for MBS / rates in 2023, what's everybody's predictions?

Plus, it enables movement of people from those areas saturated with Section 8 housing, which in my view, is good for the community and the tenant.  

So unless you're managing your own properties, unforch you'll be victim to a perpetual lowest common denominator effect. 

@Henry Lazerow makes a good point - small MF that is leveraged conservatively should provide very favorable returns, and @Glenn Clovis makes a good point about the Midwest markets.While I like NC and most of the Sunbelt, there has been a lot of movement into these markets, pushing up purchase prices. 

This will ultimately depend on various factors such as: the bank you are dealing with, the loan amount, the value of the stock (or portfolio of stocks), loan to collateral value, historical price movement of the stock, probable liquidation value and quite frankly whether or not whoever you are dealing with has any particular intent to go through the headache of understanding what you are trying to do or get into what they'd have to in terms of analyzing or qualifying the asset as a collateral and any default related risk exposure.

Get as involved as you can - I believe there's some kind of a grassroots STR movement in the Poconos as well.  

Many people have realized life is better when they aren't in an office and thus wfh will become a mainstay as will home upgrades and movement to places outside of the city center.
