It’s taken me 5 years to get here and it was worth every second of effort, pain, fear, and risk.

Sounds like you have been letting fear get in the way of taking the leap. 

You'll take risks without the fear of disappointing someone, you'll try things without caring what others will say.

I see this fear a lot.

So my fear is, I would get someone all geared up to purchase a home and then the owner on the Deed would give me a hard time.

Quote from @Sean Gallagher: This is my fear, I have not crossed over to a property manager but just what you discuss has me worried because one day I know I'll have to. 

However, I have offered two thingsA)  Higher deposit -  this way the owner's fears are alleviated somewhatB)  Property management - offer the owner that you will essentially property manage the property for them.     

While more development did happen over the last few years from development projects started in 2021 and 2022 when rates were lower and developers could outlast supply chain issues, the upcoming supply is expected to drop again, as we will discuss later on, with the relatively sharp rise in interest rates that has dried up investment capital due to the fear in the market, sellers opting to hold out on their land and or properties until cap rates and interest rates subside again as is expected in the coming years, as well as banks being cautious to lend on real estate due to this sharp rise putting many projects that were started in 2021 suffer greatly from a 7x increase in rates over the following 40 months that had adjustable rates or 5-year terms which is very common in larger multifamily investing.

As a rookie the fear is that I make a horrible purchase which ends up costing me my primary home.About me, I have been fixing aircraft for over 20 years and this is primary income.

Be patient, take action when you're ready, and don't let fear hold you back—start small, learn as you go, and build momentum over time.Good luck!
