New to this local market, I wonder whether buy and hold is a good strategies for this market (balanced between cash flow and appreciation for class A or B, I know cash flow is difficulty in general given today's real estate environment )?

Also, what's the current balance on your mortgage?

Now to be fair and balanced like fox news I have met folks at these events that paid the 30k  during evening break and a glass of wine i would ask them what brought you here..

Loan Programs: Conventional loans (>$7.5M), small balance loans (<$7.5M), lease up / near-stabilization loans, 2ndlien supplemental loans, student housing, seniors housing, MHC, green financing, etc.2.

And, having ready access to capital allowed us to scale more quickly.  2) Because the compensation is so balanced, it makes passive investing much more attractive.  

Maybe offer to pay a portion of the balance contingent on completing the work or signing a waiver to avoid the lien.

Balancing rental income, appreciation potential, and location can provide a primary home and a long-term investment portfolio.Good luck!

Ok to be like Fox News Fair and Balance this is a 90 home project I own and have been building out the last 3 years.. on top of the 300 homes i have built over the last 10 years.These are the type of firms that have big cataloges of ready plans . 

There's no balance there.

Without knowing the balance on the first, I wouldn’t touch it at at the auction.
