Quote from @Saquan Johnson: I would reach out to local rehabbers in that area and also higher-producing agents to get this info.

@Joshua Christensen wouldn't expenses naturally be less if the seller's just spent about $75,000k on cap ex improvements? 

Because of the additional income I am producing through the consulting business, I am afforded the opportunity to invest money in real estate.  

I am understanding I can convert Operating Partner Units in an UPREIT to REIT shares (taxable) but the benefit is I can sell any percentage of the operating partner units, paying taxes on only that percent I sold.A friend that is a bank auditor, specializing in commercial real estate said:operating costs should total about 30%, leaving NOI 70%For us business people NOI in real estate is EBIDA (T left out as Taxes are an above the line expense)Any know, does the DST have to produce audited financial statementsSo now I feel I am better equipped to work with the RIRep and tackle the recommended PPMIf you really follow the track record of when these multi family unit being purchase and sell, average holding time is 3-4 years so you pay the premium in there and that's why how DST sponsor makes money.

I’m a licensed realtor, an investor in the making, and someone who believes in making something out of nothing.I started in wholesaling before getting my license, and now I’m grinding to become a consistent producer while positioning myself to rebuild as an investor.

Just curious, when you mentioned other strategies, did you mean strategies such as Air B&B, guest homes, glamping, things of that nature?

Companies choosing new locations look for these key factors:Metro population over 1 Million: Companies require access to a large, skilled workforce and established infrastructure.Low Crime Rates: High crime deters both businesses and residents.Low Operating Costs: Companies prefer locations with lower taxes and fewer regulations to maintain competitiveness.Low Risk of Natural Disasters: Companies avoid areas prone to natural disasters that can disrupt operations.

If not, who do you believe the natural buyer is and why do you believe they will pay retail when they can replicate what you accomplished with any number of available properties on the market at any given time?

Quote from @Anthony Sigala: We are all aware of the 1% rule--the gross rent produced by a property must equal 1% of the of the property's acquisition cost.
