Investment real estate is such a great way to build long-term wealth. 

Trouble is that I don't yet have long-term employment in place (just moved to the area a month ago).

Most large land listings sit around a long time.

I have active SFH long term rentals in the area. 

If this is a primary, you will have a good rate/term with a local bank/CU.

The Fed recently adjusted its short term projection to one quarter point rate drop for 2024, though it had earlier predicted as many as three drops.

We have a long list of locks we support but that's the one I hear most positive comments about.

I only know about the times where this was found out prior to closing, obviously I have no way to know about the times this shady behavior wasn't found out.Since you get a vote in who this tenant is, and it's retail, PSA that commercial lenders (especially the ones offering the best terms...) are starting to vet deals by how 'recession proof' the tenants are, even if they are currently paying on time.

We're looking for buy-and-hold long term rental properties that need minimal rehab work to be rent-ready.If anyone has any banking recommendations in Michigan I'd love to hear them.

Thanks to a special IRS tax loophole, homeowners can exclude $250,000 to $500,000 of capital gains from the sale of a primary residence, so long as they have lived in the property for two out of the prior five years."
