But one of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned in my journey is that relationships are often the most critical part of success.

Midterm rentals often offer higher returns than long-term rentals, but you'll also have to manage more frequent turnovers and potential vacancies.

When trying to avoid paying interest, best to hit early, hit hard (as big as you can) and hit often.

Most of the easy "lipstick on a pig" transformations are gone - you're often looking at more serious rehabs to make the numbers work.That said, we do have some advantages: strong rental market (lots of students, young professionals), still relatively affordable deals, and good appreciation potential in many neighborhoods.

However we often find our electricians get more expensive the longer we use them so we are constantly looking for additional electricians.

During that time I've often described the multifamily market as a traffic collision at a 4-way intersection where you had (lack of or negative) rent growth coming from one direction, and from the other directions: cap rates, expenses, and interest rates. 

Often the owners are active in selling and trading with other arcades and you can slide right in and purchase one they’ve been trying to sell or trade.What games are you looking for?

It sounds like the issue is with the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR), which lenders often use to determine how much they’re willing to loan.

@Jay Hinrichs has posted on that in the past.Many people like to try and hide their identity because of the spotlight effect which refers to how people often overestimate how much others notice (or care about) them, effectively inflating their own importance in society. 

With 20 years in wholesaling, I’ve seen it’s often best to focus on either acquisitions or dispositions when starting out—it helps you build expertise faster.
