I don't think rent to retirement can vet a deal any better than anyone else or you, they just have a bit of a system. but the new builds in Lehigh acres, Cape Coral, north port, etc are all garbage. septic systems, poor economics, low rent to purchase price ratios, you are banking on appreciation and buying at market. building direct is going to give you a competitive advantage on a 3 unit let's say worth 600,000 you are going to be 120k ahead than if you bought it through them. that's my analysis. if you are super lazy and too busy to make money and have millions to throw around then I'd recommend not thinking much about investing. but you can also invest in funds and be way omre passive than buying a new build from far away. but if you want to add real value then get involved and make it happen. getting wealthy isn't easy. you work hard for your money and there are build to rent developers like us that try to answer and add value to start buiding relationshipsl

If meaningful appreciation is on the horizon, its a different story.If you were to go the financing route, blanket loan may be your best bet through small local bank or alternative lender.

Do not make the threat if you aren't ready to follow through with it.

So once we work through this wave of inventory I would expect to see the market stabilize.I still believe that this will be a great area to invest in for the future.Reach out to me if you would like to connect. 

Big difference on how you want to maange it and go through.

Currently I'm trying hubspot integrated with dealmachine but it doesn't click with Open Letter Marketing who recommend Invelo instead.
