Unfortunately, the loan size ($300k-$400k) is a bit too small for CMBS or conduit loans, but I was hoping someone would know of other methods to obtain this this kind of product.

the TK buying process serves a purpose for many investors, especially ones who are busy with their full time career and when the numbers dont work in their local market.  

Have you considered that maybe the comp sold for a lower price because of its condition, size, or a variety of other reasons/conditions requiring a lower selling price. 

What I am being proposed now is to buy a 30 SFR portfolio in a great rental market and hold it for a year and sell them to 1031 for a Multi family, building credit an income in the process.The idea is that this will give us a higher cash on cash than a mid-sized multi family and thus, higher income to show for in a year when.

Here is a quick primer on the exposures to loss you face running any size apartment complex.  

In my state, the acceptance of any payment after the pay or quit is served negates the notice and makes you start over.A lot of tenants have successfully argued late fees as usury.  

That said, while it is certainly true the conditioning served FB in terms of selling their product, it was also a necessary and effective method to make sure every person took the most out of the weekend as possible.

I am getting ready to, hopefully), buy my first commercial sized apartment building this year.

- what amenities doe your comps have- what floor plans does your comps have (size, number of bedrooms and bathrooms)- do they offer concessions/move in specials- what term leases do they offer (just 12 months, shorter or longer)4.

Have the eviction notices served by a law office, though you can of course draft them yourself. it'll make a stronger impact that way.
