I invest heavily in the Milwaukee market. 

While definitely not the best state for deals on paper, it should appreciate heavily due to location and zoning.

I weigh their opinions very heavily, though I feel like I’m stuck.

Those in favour do so because they  drank the Kool-Aid believing from others it is necessary and are paying for the physiological security. 

My firm and I invest heavily in multi-family projects in the midwest.

But of course, loan terms heavily depend upon the tenant, remaining lease term and location/demographics.  

I knew before the building closed escrow that most of the tenants came home from work, took off their shirt and hung their pot bellies over the balcony rails every day as they drank beer (no joke).

180k Purchase price Worth at least 220k. 0% down payment3.98% interestamortization 40 yearsSeller had an ungrateful tenant living in this property for over 10 years at heavily reduced rent.

I thought it did a good job of laying out the basic framework of apartment investing, but it is heavily focused on value-add repositioning.

They post really heavily on the marketplace and in the forums but trust me.. they’re very very shady.
