I own a 4plex there and I have one unit that has been vacant for about 4 months now and this seems on the high side of vacancy time.

I was just telling my friend today that I'm getting multi-family, high performance, and relationship mentoring all in one package! 

High rental demand (Section 8 too). 

He scaled with quality, going full-on luxury top-shelf.

A high occupancy does not guarantee the lost revenue.

I want to try and offset as much cost as possible without compromising quality so I’m looking for a GC mentor who could help me eat, breathe, sleep and wake GC lol.

for me, the ones that cashflow the most are the ones that I bought with 3% long term debt, they were new (low maintenance) and they are in high appreciating areas(just a bonus but does not impact cashflow).

Sometimes hard to find this happy medium in rate sheets, though.Another consideration would be taxes - points are typically treated as interest, so if your tax obligations are high this year vs being higher in the future, then this could also impact buying down now vs paying a little more in interest in future years.
