I'm familiar with Jeff and the C2C team (i've heard great things) and work primarily with Fernandos team who I love.Right now - all of the padsplit loans I am working on for my clients are underwritten based off long term rental rates.

To reevaluate, my team and I can provide further insights and resources if you're interested in implementing a creative investment strategy.

Your focus on the Dallas market and Fix and Flip projects sounds solid, especially with the DIY approach and having an interior designer on your team. 

They will still do the occasional flip, but mostly when a deal presents itself AND they may be between new construction starts so need to keep their teams busy.

I would use an experienced broker who can shop around and help you compare best terms on a National basis.

And talking with my leasing team, the properties that are moving quicker are on the lower end of the rental range $1450-1600.

Because we are vertically integrated, we can streamline operations and avoid many unnecessary costs, ultimately saving our clients money.Another crucial factor to consider is the experience and investment mindset of your PM team.

True, but (a) they were typically experienced investors, and (b) today's market includes record prices and high mortgage rates, which is a double whammy. 

Assuming that is not the caseI would think that many of the posters are not very experienced with litigation, either civil or criminal.  

The Milwaukee REIA https://www.milwaukeereia.com/ and the Rental Property Association of Wisconsin https://rpawi.org/ are both great for connecting with experienced investors, lenders, and property managers.
