And that's before factoring in competition from seasoned investors who often have the cash reserves to avoid these costs entirely—allowing them to outbid you and still make a solid profit.If you don’t have significant cash reserves or can’t find a true off-market diamond in the rough, I wouldn’t recommend flipping as your first real estate strategy in Boston.

The property owner contributing the land as equity takes it from a good deal if everything goes right to a real no-brainer. 

As an experienced real estate agent I found the land, rezoned it and my husband's general contracting company, Mountainside Properties LLC, developed and built it.

So, if you were a 'new' investor, but with your current skillset and knowledge base, and had $750,000 in net sales proceeds from a recent downleg property sale, where would you recommend investing in multifamily real estate? 

It's useless when it remains frozen in the property. 

Commercial real estate is an exciting space, and you're in the right place to learn and grow.

Your property management company can help once you own the property but up until then you need someone good on your side!!!
