I'm getting into a negative cash-flow deal to "speculate" on appreciation and future cash flow, after we can finally rehab the building, and using another cash flow deal to support it.

With crowdfunding in many cases, it works well when you have a handful of successful investments (for example, home flips or buy-and-holds) under your belt in a particular market, and at least a small group of friends that would support your deals financial.

A quick search of BP will support my statement that our pricing is always competitive and service can't be beat.

However, I do not believe that many of these folks pitching their program have the purchaser's best interest at hear.I am sure you are familiar with a book known as "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiosaki, It was such an inspiration to read, I figured I would attend an seminar hosted by them....Long story short, they had the most slick sales guy I have ever met pitching their product, They wanted some where in the ball park of $12 grand to $25 grand for their support and education.ermmm no go.I highly believe that if you are an assistant to someone who is successful and you model their success it will be 10 fold more beneficial for you to learn hands on, rather than from some grease ball who takes folks retirement money for teaching them basics about a business model that (possibly) worked in some other part of the country.There are a lot of folks out there who are hungry for how to make it, and there are equally enough people claiming to have the secret sauce for sale for just that.Be careful with you hard earned dollars, and GOOD LUCK!!!!

I raise the rent on the tenants at renewal if the market supports the need.

On a side note, the @ function doesn't seem to be supported by my browser.Austin – My intention would be to manage myself.

Thanks for helping to make BP such an amazing source of information and support.

And they are by and large A class properties that sell for 4 to 5 caps and in Beaverton these apartments support Nike and Intel along with Genentech Fujitsu and many other high tech companies they call it the silicon forest so our multi here is nothing like you see in Memphis..

Financing is a subject I find particularly daunting,  though my day job is in accounting support.
