I'm about to pull a large sum again for a down payment on a new acquisition.

I figured one month would be plenty for turnover, but I guess this might not take in to account make-ready costs or tenant acquisition costs.  

Investing in RE is only a source of long term income when it is supplemented by a source of income to pay startup/acquisition/ and ongoing expenses.

Should you ever want to talk about MF management or acquisition, I'm in that space a lot. 

You now have the freedom to work the way you wish and to find your next acquisitions--you have a real incentive to do so.

My expertise is in Multi-family acquisition and disposition.  

I would like to obtain more long term capital for holding single family homes in my portfolio and would like to structure commercial apartment building acquisitions. 

If you do not know how to operate the property after acquisition, getting it at the best deal means nothing.I would not let 2,3,4,5k stop you from moving forward, it just an excuse not to buy the property.

When the next downward cycle hits, what are the:     1) Key drivers (economy, interest rates, war, local economy change, lending changes)      2) Impacts (price drop, days on market, both, no funding, acquisition costs)      3) Strategies (a. buy, fix and hold; b. buy/sit; c. do nothing; d. buy/wholesale)We are in a long 7 year real estate boom and this can't continue forever.

Congrats on the acquisition
