Ask yourself, do you want VALUE and INCOME or are you strictly interested in a cash flow investment?

I think its strict liability for the future....in other words if you don't delead within 90 days then you could be held responsible for future occupants even if you sell.

Do you work with Investors that need to adhere to strict timelines and scope of work?

Take an old man's advice: keep personal and business separated.If your relationship is strictly business, then you're still approaching it wrong, in my opinion.

Depends on how strict the lender is. 

I have a feeling 12-18 months from now the lending restrictions wont be as strict. 

I’ve been told VA appraisals have very strict guidelines.

If you strictly analyze the financial side of the comparison, using leverage will show greater returns over time.  

Now some lenders will impose overlays on top of these guidelines and be more strict, but no lender can be any looser.Now, there may be credit unions or non-Conventional lenders that offer different solutions. 

@Matt LopezI have never chosen a market for multifamily investing strictly by the Fortune 500/1000 companies in the area and I feel in the era of COVID, this is even less important.When selecting a market for cashflow and potential appreciation we want to see diversity of employers and a diversity of industries.
