I apologize if this topic has already been covered but I am in need of someone to help me cross the finish line.

My apologies for the vagueness, I am in no way a real estate professional.

Apologize for that.

Apologies for reviving an old thread, but do any of you Tampa area folks know of any local REI meet ups or groups?

I agree that with rising interest rates and the impending recession that there will many new home builders scrambling to sell completed homes that buyers have backed out of.I love the idea of not having any CAPEX maintenance expenses for the first 5-7 years, this gives you ample time to build that emergency fund for each property instead of waiting with a bag of money for the shoe to drop when the HVAC or roof needs replaced suddenly.Also a great point about rents lagging and the type of tenant a nice new property would draw. 

Apologies for the delayed response, just got back from a long trip. 

I apologize if this sounds negative, but I just want to curb unrealistic expectations. 

If so, I do apologize.

I really need to 3rd grade level explanation here.Also, first post, apologies if it's not in the right forum!

I apologize for any typos as I’m responding from the BP app which isn’t that great.
