I was cold contacted on LinkedIn recently to discuss syndications with DealEstate.AI. 

I recently put together one myself specifically for beginners who want a structured guide from setup to first booking.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Hey everyone,I have recently read Pace Morby's book about creative finance, and am super stoked!  

Using a recent example from one of my deals, I saw firsthand how inaccurate comps, misclassifications, and unfair adjustments could impact an appraisal by tens of thousands of dollars.I’d love to hear from other investors—have you ever had to dispute an appraisal?

Quote from @Gregory Schwartz: A local agent recently got sued for calling an old client who was on the Do Not Call list.

As a client of 5+ years, it has just been TOO MUCH, recently.

Quote from @Samuel Hudson: Hello friends I am new the market and recently bought a home in Weehawken 6 months backs .Its a three family home and we are currently doing renovations Right now.The rent leveling board told me that two units would have to follow a rent of 1650 for unit 1 which has three bedrooms and another unknown amount for unit 2 which they don’t have the information for .The previous seller I purchased the property from bought it as a tax lien .He has kept the property vacant for two years with no tenants before selling it to me .However ,the previous Owner he bought it from must have had tenants .I am putting in a lot of money into renovations and want some clarity on the situation I am in .The property has been vacant for the two years and currently still is as we are doing renovation .It would be really appreciated if anyone can assist me on what information needs to be provided by from the previous seller for me to be able to set the rent based on the market value .Thank you . 

Any advice or insights from your recent experiences would be greatly appreciated!

The recent earthquakes destroyed many multi-family complexes and will continue doing so.
