I also have a 50/50 partner in the mix. 

Your landlord will want to qualify the tenant, so assure him/her that he/she has final say on whether or not this new tenant can take your place.The issue for your landlord is that you and your roommates jointly qualified for the apartment, but maybe the new person you bring you won't have income or good enough credit that the new tenant mix qualifies.

Sometimes you'll come across mix used properties.

@Jonathan Feliciano if you're interested in comparing short-term rentals in the mix, happy to provide analytics and info! 

A mix of many assets in conservative quantities arguably is the safest way forward. 

We just built a small mixed use building in Downtown Bryan with 20 residential lofts and up to 6 retail spaces, we also have two other commercial multi tenant buildings with 9 spaces.

Lots of confusion and mixed messages.

We're having trouble finding a mix of affordability, rental interest, and safety. 

But, could the mix of strong inflation, increased unemployment, and all time high rents actually lead to a downward trend in D-B class multi-family rental values? 

Are you looking to BRRRR, househack, flip, buy and hold, or a mix?
