Alan,Firstly don't believe everything you read ;), Yes over the long term, commercial multi-family does trend towards the mean of ~50% but New Build, Just Rehabbed, Older Buildings, etc, have very different operating characteristics.

The problem comes when you are trying to expand in a market that how no future.

I'll definitely need this with future  sales.Austin, I did live in the house for more than that so I'll hope it works out.

Plus — as an added bonus — Josh Dorkin comes back to the BiggerPockets Podcast to explain where he’s been and what the future of the BiggerPockets Podcast will look like!

I will keep u in mind for future opportunities.

But that's murky, future territory. 

Hello Everyone,My names Gerard Antonucci, i'm 19 years old, and  I'm extremely excited to build my future in real estate. 

@Matthew Filepp.Welcome to BP, and congratulations on making the decision to invest in your future via real estate.I have written a few blog posts that may help you get started here on BP, and with your investing.

I'll adopt "The Scarface Solution" (I'm not copywriting that - feel free to use it in future explanations) and get the money first.
