I am shocked that an increase could come at this scale YOY and am considering deploying the capital elsewhere to prevent any future loss on valuation.Have any other owners in CO or nationally experienced a massive increase like this in 2024?

Hi Tony, Most national DSCR lenders can lend on properties with a maximum unit count of 10.

Additionally, national lenders like Chase and Wells Fargo have strong multi-family loan programs that cater to out-of-state investors.Scaling OwnershipGiven your available cash and equity, here are a few strategies to consider:Leverage Existing Equity: Utilize the equity in your current properties through a cash-out refinance or HELOC to increase your purchasing power.Partnering with Other Investors: Consider syndications or joint ventures, which can help you scale more quickly without using all your own capital.Diversify Markets: While the Midwest is great, keep an eye on emerging markets across the country that may offer similar benefits.Focus on Value-Add Opportunities: Look for properties where you can increase value through renovations or improved management.I specialize in selling new construction duplexes in downtown Indianapolis, and I’ve found that multi-family properties here provide strong returns.

By national standards? 

I work with CSSI who are the nation's premier engineer-based cost segregation firm with over 45k is completed studies. 

I pay an annual broker fee, small transaction fee (for E&O insurance etc), MLS fees for access and key lock systems, Realtor fees (which are higher than you think with both national and local), my own sign riders and sone marketing.

It seems like when I took the national exam you were limited to a certain number of originations per year (like 5 or less).
