While a western WA deal might not meet some Midwest cf metric like 1%, it will be above the market cap rate or below FMV of comparibles and give you options. 

REPS is for someone who meets specific requirements- at least 750 hours in real estate and more time on real estate than anything else; so having a fulltime job disqualifies someone. 

Great to meet you all!

I'm looking forward to meeting new people and am happy to share my experiences through my first 4 years in real estate with anybody who's looking to get started.

Jane and Jack Doe don’t get to go to these meeting.

I'd like to take this time to schedule a brief call 02/17 at your earliest convenience to delve into more detail as far as how I can quickly analyze and find properties that meet a minimum cap rate.

I haven't joined MAREI yet, but I've been to one of their meetings and found it useful.

I think the right investor would do 2 units long term one unit short term. this strategy allows you the greatest flexibility. we are also developing an extended stay hotel that's 58 rooms. the size of the average room in that is 216 square feet and rents for a target $80 per night. our development cost per room is 100k per room with hard construction. the smaller you go the more money you make. if I was to suggest anything it would be to focus on the smaller part of the market and on multiple unit dwellings and finding and identifying markets that meet similar numbers. that will probably be midwest markets.

I am also open to connecting with local professionals for coffee meetings or informational interviews.Thank you for welcoming me into this community, and I look forward to learning and growing with your support!

Maybe you have some thoughts on if this is feasible.I will absolutely put a pin in the NorCal Real Estate Mastermind meet-up.
