I'm originally from BR and am fairly active there. we see a lot of inventory so also happy to chat offline about this

But stay active doing SOMETHING.

Already there are many reports of increased listing activity in the surrounding areas and plans for many to relocate and migrate.

Until this point, I had nothing but great experiences with Norada's referrals in other markets, so I put my trust in them here as well.As a veteran, I saved the money for these investments during my time on active duty and while working as a contractor in Afghanistan and Iraq for over five years.

I spent a decade in advertising, before founding and running a custom wood shop for another decade, so 'm pretty good at the self-promotion.I agree with you that the more gorilla approach would be most effective and that's actually what i've been doing – calling RE agents in my service area with active listings, introducing myself to property managers and leasing agents...To answer your question, I will have to handle the work myself for 6-12 months to build out the SOPs and field service management systems, but I have a lot of relationships for those looking to "do the work".I'll check out the meet up and would love to grab a cup of coffee, I'll shoot you an email.

The market was much more active at the time though than it is now, so it could be easier now.

You absolutlely need to be direct to seller or have close, personal relationships with wholesalers and active agents.

Jay, I am not sure what the market really looks like for builders in Midland-Odessa but it is crazy that there is not more activity in multi-family in that area. 

I see a lot of new construction in Richmond and Berea as I travel from Lex nearly every day im excited to see how the mega site in Mt Vernon and Richmond grow these areas What surrounding areas of Lexington are you seeing more activity?

Paying off rental mortgages increases monthly cash flow but reduces liquidity, while investing in hard money lending offers high returns but is taxed as ordinary income.Buying a multi-unit rental provides tax benefits like depreciation, while purchasing a business can yield strong profits but requires active management.
