An NBC News measure of home buying difficulty shows that Hennepin County, where Minneapolis is located, is the second-easiest county to buy a home in compared to the seven counties adjacent to it — even though Hennepin is the most populous county in the state.”Great damn job Minneapolis!!!!

- What measurement do you consider 'low' when measuring water pressure?  

For long-term goals, I generally recommend focusing on newer investments in markets with a proven track record of steady growth.Once you're clear on how much time you want to dedicate and what outcome you’re aiming for, it becomes easier to choose the right investment path.Hope this helps, and best of luck!

Impact: Drives immediate, measurable business outcomes.

Be sure understand the reason for it, so you're not digging yourself into a deep hole here.Lastly, remember that cap rate is a measure of the local market.

Since, I aim on the lower end of market prices, I have NEVER had to lower my prices!

Are you aiming for part time / passive investment or full time immersion?  

For a core deal, I would assume it would be lower, but again, I don't know what they are doing to drive those returns.Relying on markedly lower loan rates is no guaranteeRelying on more core buyers is only likely to happen when pricing (as measured by cap rate) is higher than prevailing interest rates.Unknowns:What is business plan to generate those returns? 

Additionally, you might want to consider working closely with your local Public Housing Authority (PHA) to screen applicants more thoroughly or negotiate higher payment standards for better tenant placements.PS: Something that may help you: Baltimore recently passed the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act (TOPA), which aims to strengthen renters' rights and provide better engagement between landlords and tenants.

The metric to measure whether it works or not is the CONVERSION RATE, not whether or not a deal was made.If your conversion rate is 0.03% (like it usually is for DMM), spending more money to get more mailers out does NOT change the effectiveness of that strategy.
