Looking back, I think the rental market has been slow in general since last fall, with rents falling on a seasonal basis.

Last year, I purchased a SFH under market at 7.65% interest rate and did some rehab to up the value.

Although in the last couple deals most have come out as 506C deals where only accredited investors are allowed, there are still 506B syndications where you can be a sophisticated investor (self proclaimed) so you don't have to be accredited.

Banks rejected 1 in every 5 mortgage applicants last year.

I went deep on SBA 504 loans when we were buying a bed & breakfast property last Jul / Aug. 

Lastly, the price point is still very cheap here in the sense that you can still find investment deals that hit the 1% rule for 120-180k!

Steve,It is true PE and investment groups have been gobbling up the market over the last 10 years- so much of the 'great all TOH parks' are more and more difficult to find. 

There’s been a lot of “dumbing down” of financial services and coaching in the last 5 years.  

Seasoning is the time period between from closing of the last transaction to the closing of the new transaction. 

Hi everyone,I bought my first studio condo in Astoria, NYC, last December.
