I get calls weekly from assignors across the country who are surprised that I don't have any interest in their retail deals. 

Two Reasons: First, because 50M people in this country either work gig jobs or are illegal immigrants, when they lose their jobs or have their hours scaled back, it doesn't show up on official unemployment stats.

Kansas City is the “Heart of America” a transportation hub in the center of the country with a small city feel and the big city attractions of art, culture, fine dining, and professional sports teams.

If you want to look at a cash flowing market like the midwest here in KC, I can show you some data points around this part of the country. 

OOS flipsOOS rentalsOut of Country investing.....but the returns in Cleveland and favelas in Brazil are amazing....how often do we see those posts.

@Maynhia Stott Also I have not had experience with these 2 but i have heard Iowa is 2 percent per month (24 per annum), and Texas is 25% penalty (that is the highest I know of in  the country). and I dont know if they do anything OTC.

I was Out of country for multiple weeks.

Another we work with will take a new deal that was $500k, they may lend full amountore but they would also need to cross collateralize as well on other assets that would have to be atleast 2-3x value of the property.  

Financing-  build a relationship with a regional banker, don’t shop for interest rates, start small and build history and loyalty they are your team, Cross collateralize, deposit CD/MM or custodial account with bank for loan, give them monthly updates, nail your deal analysis, do stress tests on your deal analysis-cost/interest rate/deal length/ sale price etc. 12.  

I have seen several offers from operators around the country who are offering interest rates of sub 6% for a 30-year fixed mortgage with a 20% down payment required, NO POINTS.
