The best ones being that in most markets they are the most in demand product for both rentals and sales, tenant quality is higher, there is more inventory of distressed property so it is easier to find one at a larger discount, and if/when I do sell it is at top dollar to a retail buyer (not an investor).

Prince George's is one of the best real estate markets in the country, both to wholesale and to "buy/hold" for wealth creation.

Most product life-spans can be predicted.

Some banks will have a very competitive portfolio product to work with.

Some bridge products can get you in the 80%-range but even then it will be a stretch.

Far from it.It was a combination of borrowers using their homes for ATM's, Wall St. hedge fund managers who created mortgage  backed security products and the greed of the lenders who needed to "feed the beast."

If you want to look into doing it yourself let me know, we handle almost 600 units in-house except in extreme circumstances and I can show you products and use to handle it.

IMO, devote your time productively in prepping for the sale.
