@Robert Brock, I guess my advice is not really any different than I would say to someone wanting to be a residential wholesaler: you need to add value to the transaction.Often times, having the deal tied up is the value, but more often then not, in my limited experience with commercial wholesalers and residential, the wholesaler has no idea what someone will actually pay, so they tie up a deal at too high a price and then add their fee that turns a bad investment into a horrible investment. 

If what we are feeling is accurate, the January data should show substantial increase in buyer demand.Jan 1, 2020 to Jan 1, 2025 InventoryWhile interest rates remain high, the demand from buyers is still strong.

Companies choosing new locations look for these key factors:Metro population over 1 Million: Companies require access to a large, skilled workforce and established infrastructure.Low Crime Rates: High crime deters both businesses and residents.Low Operating Costs: Companies prefer locations with lower taxes and fewer regulations to maintain competitiveness.Low Risk of Natural Disasters: Companies avoid areas prone to natural disasters that can disrupt operations.

Taxes are high in TX with real estate, so put more money down to create some cash flow.

Or will rates continue to stay high?

I know it is still down season, so listings are thin (especially for MF which is our preferred route), but it is starting to discourage me; like we've already missed the train of cheap debt and rapid appreciation/inflation that so many others took advantage of in recent years.Are my expectations set too high for my target area? 

Is refinancing not an option in your mind because of the high pre-payment penalty?

By highlighting properties in high-demand areas like San Ysidro that are ripe for SB-9 developments, you'll attract savvy buyers and investors who are eager for strong returns.

Hi Erica, what I've notice is that high-quality (high-priced) washer and dryers don't out perform other based price models in rentals. 

If it's the same 212 loan that I have some high level knowledge on, they offer fix and flip loans and are generally associated with a specific wholesaling firm.
