The owner is friend of mine, really good dude.

Having a group of friends living in an apartment complex creates a sense of community and reduces turnover.

Buying a property under general partnership with 2 other friends.

Phoenix has been a hot market for rentals recently, but consider how long-term trends, interest rates, or construction projects might impact demand.Here’s a quick story: A friend of mine bought a new-build in a suburban development a few years back.

From leaving my home friends and family I met some really good people and I hoped to share that experience and learn more about realestate in the process How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I funded this with US cash, as well as a loan with a Canadian bank.I have shared this process with many friends and other real estate buddies that commended my journey.

That’s the kind of agent you want in your corner, especially in a competitive market like San Antonio.While I haven’t worked with him directly, I’ve spoken with an investor friend who did.

and even for friends and family, that's more of a favor than a loan...you asked not to sugarcoat, so here goes. 

It makes me wonder why they have to open a user on every forum to publicly clear their name, yet there isn't one real user that can show something they have really done. smells fishy at best.
