I'm really interested in understanding the power of "Other peoples money" I've been seeing and reading that there is NO shortage of money you just have to find it.When pitching to private lenders is it a smart path to present it to Self directed IRA holders..

If your account is short, the lender can add the shortage to the escrow payments over the next year or ask you to pay the difference.

Shortages will require you to increase their mortgage payment and overages will require you to refund it back.  

Not many multifamily units have been selling I believe because there is such a shortage of housing and rents are at a historical high (there is a large and growing university in town).I understand that comps are the main determination.

We’re so fortunate that we live in an area that has no shortage of amazing school districts.

Rising Labor CostIncreased Government SpendingProlonged housing shortages all equal the main pressure pointsInflation is picking up and looks like it will increase over the next 18 monthsa half of a percentage point jump in mortgage rates is about an extra $60 per monthRents have exceeded 3% annually over the last 4 yearslow unemployment and rising house costs up 3% over the last yearI believe this is why there is such a demand for rentals right now.

The market here is much different though, and there is certainly no shortage of tenants.Thanks for sharing and it's nice to meet you!

What I will say is that bay area housing has hit almost a crisis level shortage.

There is a shortage of affordable rental housing in Toronto.

On the one hand, I live in Cleveland now and have no shortage of tenants to rent the spare bedrooms of my primary residence; however, it would take longer to save as I'd need a larger down payment because real estate is more affordable in Youngstown.
