I'm curious to know how often property managers actively suggest value-add activities for properties (ie, building an ADU, remodeling, buy-fix-hold opportunities etc etc). 

That's great to hear that you're graduating and you want to get into multifamily.I would start off in a commercial real estate firm, learn the systems, the sales/buying process, how to analyze deals etc...

I am looking to buy another multi family property but have noticed lots of obstacles when looking off market.

Will you be buying Miami?

Either way, i always decide to buy additional properties as opposed to developing what i have, because I’ll continue having that and can do what i please in the future. 

And yes, you can buy existing stuff at a discount from new construction for sure. 

you cannot realistically buy real estate when you have no personal funds.but what you can do is work to put a partnership together where you find a money partner and you guys do a JV  money partner you do the work.. this can happen if you find someone who takes a shine to you and wants to help U

It's a new home, so it should be as close to perfect when you buy it as possible.

But market always buys the rumor and sells the fact, so 10yr should fall soon to around 4, or even lower if PCE print Wednesday is lower than expected. 

@Richard Schubert are you having these professionally inspected before you buy them?
