For the most part, your thoughts are coherent and true, however there are some assumptions being made that won't always hold true.

You're taking a big risk with this assumption.

The amount of assumptions you make is pretty dumbfounding, and if you think that I'm trying to sell people on just my strategy, maybe you should re-read your posts as well since, according to you, we're all idiots and should only invest in multifamily real estate, and at that, only super expensive multifamily real estate (which isn't an option for a lot of people).  

My assumption was similar on which banks will be willing to do that loan amount, so I'm targeting the smaller regional banks around me (already have one who handles our sfr and small mfh).

But the numbers are based on assumptions which with no further info, can I begin to assess.Did you run your taxes at your proposed purchase price?  

I think it’s important to understand opportunity cost relative to stocks, REITS, etc.You should run your DCF and see what set of assumptions you need to make in order to make the deal work for you.

Whether or not your assumptions are correct in terms of vacancy, rent, maintenance and Capex items, etc, that is something no one on this forum can tell you, unless they know this deal specifically.As for the pool, personally I would steer clear.  

Then within 5-10 minutes on any property you can quickly update a screening table with your PF rent plans, tweak any assumptions, and see if you are anywhere in the ballpark vs. guidance.

My assumption is that a portfolio loan  would free up conventional "bullets", thus would be a positive from a financing perspective but wouldn't have the benefit that commercial financing (via a LLC) would from a liability perspective.

So when I see the constant flow of senseless legislation, assumptions. accusations around Philly landlording topics, I count to 100, take time to understand where the other side is coming from and share my opinions and concerns in a respectful way.
