Ever wondered if single-family or multifamily is the smarter choice for building your rental portfolio?

I listened to some of these gurus (including a few people on BP) about acquiring doors to have "financial freedom" and bought 2 Class C properties in Indianapolis, not hating the city just my choice of property purchases - that cash flow on paper has turned out to be -$300 to -$500 a month.

I could maybe sign up with that theory if the GPs were using the side hustle money as a way of cutting or eliminating their fees & salaries altogether while they try to hang in long enough to hope for enough rate cuts to refinance or the market to unfreeze and let them unload at least at break-even, but I bet none of them do anything of the kind. 

I think you'd be making a great choice if you decide to move here. 

I would say these are not deals for a retail investor.Regarding investing in syndications, its really a personal choice of being passive and trusting people when real estate is not your specialty - similar to stocks - I do not manage my stock portfolio because I am clueless on it and my wife is 1000x smarter than I am and manages it.

My son just joined the Navy and now that I’m an empty nester I want to make a shift and bet on myself!

bet dollars to donuts its leveraged to the eyeballs. 

Lost rent from vacancy could easily be several thousand...so, by time you add it all up, it's easily possible for a sewer line replacement to end up costing $40k+ if it involves those types of ancillary expenses.To me, spending a few hundred bucks on a scope to prevent a $40k+ capex on a property worth over half a million is one of the easiest choices I make in the world of REI!

It’s a top choice for those wanting broader protection.Cash Value vs.
