I'd love to hear from anyone with experience/ insight in this industry.

I'm a commercial mortgage broker and I'd love to connect to discuss debt financing strategies as you come across potential deals. 

Here are some warning signs I’ve come across, but I’d love to hear your experiences:1️⃣ Upfront Fees – Are application, due diligence, or "insurance" fees ever legitimate?

I’d love to learn more about the off-market multis you mentioned in Waterville and any other opportunities that might align with my goals.Looking forward to discussing further—let me know the best way to connect! 

If you're an accredited investor able to meet the minimum commitment amount required by the fund, I have to imagine you have access to opportunities that are more favorable to you as an LP.

I plan to stay in this general area for at least the next 20 years and think buying real estate would be a great way to diversify my investment portfolio.So in almost any scenario you will come ahead buying vs renting over twenty years probably well less than half of that, but the investment you are making is a long term investment you probably won’t be able to leave after a year or two and rent for more than your mortgage, I’d really think about where you want to live medium-long term, than any investment metric, because the longer you stay the better the investment looks, and if you can move out sooner great, but I’d guess at minimum you’d have to stay 5 years before rents would catch up to your mortgage. 

Quote from @Joel Bechtel: The agent I spoke with has about 30 years of insurance experience, so I’d hope she knows what she’s talking about and what she’s offering.I have another policy with Allstate for my 6-unit property, which they were able to insure for approximately $890K because the replacement cost came in under $1M.

Quote from @Mary Holland: I'd love to hear about your experiences and how they compare to other types of commercial real estate financing.

Vegas is the conference capital of the world and I'd say Caesars Palace is pretty iconic!

My passion lies in expanding my portfolio of long-term rentals and diving into property flipping as I grow in this journey.My main goals are to connect with like-minded investors and professionals, share experiences, and soak up as much knowledge as I can from this incredible community.If you’re based in Georgia or working on similar projects, I’d love to connect and hear about your journey!
