I would like to Brrrr properties and from what I can see the opportunity to Brrrr in the US is massive.  

I see the same trend in San Francisco bay area too....Not the same absolute number increases, but percentage increase is likely even bigger than Chicago...

I work a full time job and cannot make 99% of the trainings, but they host trainings almost every single day as well as on Saturdays and sometimes on Sunday there are tours with training coaches to see the inventory.Please send me a message if you would like some more detail, but at the same time it is all about what fits your situation the best.

If you see the current trends, there is money to borrow in the markets lots of it.

Hi @Johnny Lau, I went down a similar path to you whereby I built up a portfolio of SFH’s and subsequently moved to multifamily syndication, firstly as a LP and subsequently as a GP.I think that the SFH’s are a great way to get started and to see the power of real estate as a means by which to generate wealth via cash flow, equity upside and tax benefits.

I think I see the deal you are talking about.
