.: Quote from @Molly Hane: I’ve found a “deal” but I’m having trouble understanding if this is a good fit for me.

I've not invested with 5S so I can't comment on their product and management specifically but I can say for build to rent, if you’re considering this, ask yourself: Does this fit your investment strategy and comfort level?

Cincinnati and Northern Ky have both and I would love to talk more about if this market fits you.

Reach out to individuals to determine the right fit, as the best mentor should balance support with decision-making.Good luck!

In addition we would like the flexibility for me to be able to supplement my income or leave my employer as we see fit.

Happy to connect with you and talk about a specific strategy that fits your needs.

For brokers, it is a numbers game and most of them want to consistently bring on new agents.You may have to meet with multiple brokers to decide which is the best fit for you.All the best!

Not every investor profile fits the SF market. 

You can test that side of it out to see if it's a good fit for you, but take some time to find which side is the right fit for you because that will be a key to achieving long-term success.Also build as many sponsor relationships as you can in the beginning because that'll give you plenty of options when you find a deal. 

Then I look for properties that fit my parameters…and I always ask for owner financing…even though I might use that mortgage broker.
