The last few years we've just been nickel and dime-ing it--  picking up small value add add-ons near existing properties and recently did a "trade-up" 1031 exchange sale/purchase for a newer/better neighborhood property with one less but larger higher rent units.

That’s because it can include renting furniture and decor to more fully transform a space.How Do I Know Which One To Pick?

Pick solid operators and solid asset classes.We syndicate self-storage projects.

@Kathy Fettke Im certainly not trying to pick a fight or malign RWN.

I also believe you have an obligation to discloss if property is being used inconsistent with DCA record - even if attorney/buyer fails to pick-up on the issue.

We will see more investors walk away because the properties aren't performing well, but other investors will pick them up and the quantity will remain high.Rates are anyone's guess.

The same was being said 15 years ago and we went from this huge shortage to being able to pick almost any home you wanted for 4 years and we were not building anything. 

One of my clients picked up a duplex in Albany Park last year, and the rental income not only covered the mortgage but also gave him extra cash for daycare expenses.

Quote from @Drew Sygit: We give our tenants as many options as possible - EXCEPT picking up their rent.Exactly.

Some of my clients in this scenario literally just pick-up the phone, tell the seller of their specific property they are interested and they are well qualified, and see if there is some kind of fit.
