I an other like minded people out in BP wolrd who have developed working relationships with commercial lenders over the last several years are better poised, IMO, in our new interest rate environment.

Ask anybody whose balloon payments hit in 2008/2009 and couldn't refinance their building or who have to refinance into a much worse interest rate environment So it must be stated that you don't face many of these above with the stock market (assuming you aren't investing "short-term" money with the intention of "making a quick buck" and then get crushed if the market goes into a correction). 

Also, feel free to DM me to talk real estate, I’m open to grabbing a coffee to talk about your business and would be willing to help you out in any way possible if it meant I could learn in a hands on environment.

That is very good in today's environment if it is in a B/C area and AZ does not have many war zones (so I suspect it is not in a war zone).Now let's look at it differently and say market rent is $750 (confirmed via a source other than Zillow) but for some reason the current owner is getting only ~$600.  

In today's environment there is so much more money out there than good investments.

It is paramount in this environment that you "buy right" which is to say never pay over asking price.

Meaning, your market is 1, 3 and 5 miles in your basic urban environment.

Technically, capital tied up in hard assets is opportunities lost, especially in today's ridiculously low cost borrowing environment.

Best way to find one like that is network with other agents and discuss the environment of the brokerage they work in.

I can model a deal no problem and tell when the numbers make sense, but I need some suggestions as to how people navigate financing in low cap rate environments where even crappy MF properties are going to run at least 350-400K per unit.
