Philly had a lot of growth pre 08 and once again is resuming growth.  

I am looking for a job and found a few openings for Property Managers or Leasing Agents for some of the larger portfolios back home.My question is how can I make my resume and cover letter shine?

Here is the link to the FL conference, they are still working out the speakers and agenda, apparently. https://www.imn.org/real-estate/conference/The-Ina...Hi @John Thedford yes, my company acquires first position distressed debt with a goal to reach a resolution with the borrower to have them resume loan payments.

Bellingham's housing market is SMOKING STEAMING INCANDESCENT ABOUT TO ACHIEVE NUCLEAR FUSION HOT with housing prices jumping 11%...LAST MONTH.  

We resumed buying in 2011. 

If they do, I point them to rehabbing or landlording.Have a great night,TedNo need to be defensive or post your resume.

Well of COURSE the inspector is different from the guy who final'd the house, and is different from the guy who approved the drawings... so he sends us a nuclear weapon of an inspection. 

@Karthik Ramachandran I agree 100% with @Stephanie Potter In my opinion, while your two SFH's will give you zero credit with Multi-family lenders, The $800k in which they are worth in equity will allow for you to partner on a Syndication deal which will then allow for you to have a record in the commercial Multi-family investment arena.After the Syndicated deal is completed, take your original $800k plus profit from the deal, your new found commercial multi-family experience, your education gained from learning everything on the syndicated deal and then you'll be able to decide if you're really ready for a true commercial multi-family property.You'll also find out if you're looking at a $5MM property you'll need a minimum of $1,250,000 for the down payment, then you'll need all the cost that Stephanie mentioned, some other cost that wasn't mentioned are licensing and legal cost for the entity structuring, etc...With this roadmap you're one deal away from being able to do what you're asking about:1) Find an experienced Syndication Sponsor, create a 50/50 Partnership2) Your Partnership has the resume to do the deal with the experienced Sponsor3) Execute the deal once it's completed upon exit take your money and do the same thing for yourself4) Goal met    

In some of the oddities of the system our generating capacity, much of which is nuclear, often puts out more electricity than is needed, and so it is sold off to neighbouring US states at cut rates. 

What do lenders go on -- the numbers of the property, your "resume" as a businessperson generally, etc?
