You should see principal pay down and tax depreciation but you are not gaining cap compression or anything else.Just go into this with a clear understanding of what you will be getting for your money and how the investment will look over the next 5 years. 

You are trying to accomplish several objectives:To be affordable to the widest possible audience.To be safe from Class A compression that will eventually come due to eventual over-supply.Product that is good enough, young enough, not functionally obsolescent.And, obviously, you want a fairly stable/manageable tenant base which makes you money...Generally speaking, all good things happen somewhere around the golden mean.

Hello All...I am interested in peoples opinion about markets around the country where you can still find good cash flowing apartment buildings...With cap rates as compressed as they are now, its getting harder and harder for a project to cash flow.I would love to hear peoples opinion on where the good stable cash flow marks are these days.....I am talking about markets with a enough people in them to facilitate being able to find a good property manager and also a market big enough to have enough of a population base to supply a supply of tenants to keep it occupied.

The compression that I made was that while a broker /realtor has to be licensed and work under certain rules and guideline, there is nothing regulating the wholeale business.
