I invested $50k; I received a whopping $125.very disappointed; I could have easily bought another rental or invested in a mutual fund and done so much better.

A Boston-area guy with two evictions and two pitbulls is not going to find another place to rent easily, and he knows it.

I do like the efficiency of pricelabs in terms of easily monitoring your comps (if you use the Neighborhood tab and load in your comps)

This is an unrealistic scenario because you cannot easily find someone to give you 95% financing on four properties. 

Likely this will be tied up in court for a while.Then I would guess they would give everyone time to do it.If they win their challenge then you would never have to do it.

This property’s location in South End is a major win—walkability to shops, restaurants, and the light rail makes it very desirable.

So, remember to pop that champagne and celebrate milestones, nurture trust, and provide attractive returns – it's a winning formula in the world of real estate investment.Happy Holidays to all!

Logically we keep telling ourselves, we have the experience to easily make the transition but mentally there's a big difference when dealing with 100's of thousands of dollars on a single fam / duplex and millions of dollars on a 20+ unit property.

My other SFR notes have interest rates determined by the borrower's cash, credit score and income - so market rates or higher.I understand the difference in performing vs non-performing notes and that performing can become non-performing pretty easily. 

Most invest in these smaller assets focusing on wrong criteria leading them to markets without meaningful appreciation and even when they do stumble across a market with strong fundamentals they do not understand  real estate finance and/or fail to exit these assets when they the appreciation event occurs wrongly focusing on rental cash flow.The ability to combine a high earning W2 with a sound investment thesis is a winning recipe but not realistic for most.
