For seasoned investors in Cincinnati, what does this realistically allow me to consider, if thinking about the BRRRR method or other strategies?

Occupancy Rate:You're smart to estimate 75% occupancy→that’s a conservative yet realistic approach, especially with the competition in New Orleans.

Actually, above that I'd love to see an opt-out clause if X of the raise goal is not achieved before closing.One may try to say it's a bait-and-switch of sorts, on risk levels, to close w/o the full funds IF the chances of quickly closing out the remaining raise are not realistic.

That is not to say you shouldn't try, just be prepared with realistic expenctaions.

My last eviction was in 2019. 8% seems realistic for me.

I need to set realistic expectations and timelines.
