Just content to sit on the sidelines and not "force" a deal by being too optimistic when you run your numbers.  

We manage in the Chicago suburbs and do a lot of work force housing.

Hi Drew, I look usually for C-class areas, like Bagley/University District, and Marygrove/Fitzgerald.What do you think about these?

That might also change what strategy you use seeing as you might be able to find some ways to use less up front cash to get a property by using the BRRRR method or finding something you can force appreciation with.

We have a unique customizable fund platform that allows you to raise money one deal at a time instead of a blind pool fund that forces your investors to invest in each deal.

It can also work if you're planning to do an option, assignment, or double closing, because you're not taking on the risk of holding the property for an extended period, but if things continue slowing down (thank you, high interest rates), you'll want to be very careful about how much you're offering, especially if you stick to the straight flipping model, where you take title to the property and don't make any improvements to force appreciation.

We have good success with STR and MTR, lots of Universities here, 2 Air Force Bases, Air War College, Space Force, 3 hospitals, Amazon distribution center, Meta data facility, Hyundai manufacturing, 2nd lowest taxes in the nation.

One thing that became apparent was the strategy of the all the buyers, force appreciation by finding assets with upside, which my property had plenty.

Appreciation for the most part is non-existent unless you force it w/ improvements.  

I’ve also used Home Warranty services (could write a book actually) as a hedge for C class properties I managed in the past so I empathize with the intent.
