Real Estate investing is never easy and you will come out better after this situation for the future.

Thanks for the mention @Nathan Gesner@Jodi-Ann Birch we don't do business up in Flint, but we have encountered Gebrael Management a few times as they've tried to do business in Metro Detroit.They seem to have good processes, but please validate they will meet your expectations.Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Best of luck on your real estate investing journey!

Thanks in advance.Hello @Sinuway Martinez,There are real estate investment opportunities across various markets, particularly in the Midwest and Southeast regions of the U.S.

I have the ability to get these units built at very favorable costs and there are no real comps I can find so I am at a loss for planning my development strategy with regards to the size of loan I could reasonably get.This will be my first project and my partner's third but he self-financed the two others.

You came to the right place to learn more about real estate investing!

Since a lot of you are wondering the difference between PML and HML, here are my thoughts about it...Private money lending and hard money lending both involve loans for real estate, but they differ in source and terms.

Real Estate is a team sport.
