We've had two-four folks parrot their subto teachings on here for the last 2 years+, they come back under different aliases and re do it. 

Just a heads up LTR folks are pretty brutal on furniture.

If curious, here are the last two: Jan 2023: Multifamily Real Estate is At Risk of CrashingFeb 2024: Multifamily is at High Risk of Continuing It's Historic CrashI think that the title for my 2025 analysis (likely Jan/Feb publication will be something more like:Multifamily is Finally Going to Hit Rock Bottom in Q2/Q3 2025 - Get Ready to Buy a LOT of itAs usual, I like to publish my draft thoughts here to get input from key players in the space and these forums, especially folks like @Brian Burke, to see if I am missing any high level areas, before I get into the weeds and look at the data more deeply and regionally. 

well you have your own answer there are no lenders for entitlements  there are JV partners like me for entitlements but its not at traditional lending rates of course as its all risk capital.WI funded 3 entitlement deals in 2024 in Loudan  county VA to the tune of 7 figures in cash. since my client does not own it its unsecured ..

If you now have equity in the business, shouldn't you be entitled to see that? 

Most are folks that have the emotional control of a 5 year old, controlling attitude, an omniscient narrative in every thread & topic, act like an online hall monitor, and constant attention seeking. 

I'm sure there are great, stable areas in Columbus but I'm not convinced the appreciation has been as strong as most would lead you to believe.I don't know much about Cincinnati, but one glance at the median list price over the past 5 years (attached below) would be enough for me to write it off as not appreciating.I'm personally partial to Detroit and that's where I invest and do a lot of business with other folks as well.

No one checks the maintenance crew to see if the did a good job (as far as I can tell, their in house folks miss stuff). 

I've seen folks pick up single-family homes here for under $200K, add $20-30K in rehab, and refinance to pull out nearly all their capital.Indianapolis, IN: Indy is another fantastic market for first-time investors.

So for me the decision was pretty straightforward, but it still required a lot of thought.It’s not easy out there these days folks, best of luck!
