I like MFH due to the economy of scale.

Buy & Hold is also one of my strategies and I've come to realize that in order to scale my business that I need to be open minded to investing out of state.

My initial goal/strategy is to buy and hold C-B property scaling my way up to medium then large sized apartment complexes.

But it has factors such as Market growth (weighted 6), Scale (weighted 4), utilities (weighted 4), Demand (weighted 6), rent upside (weighted 6), Property age (4), Deferred maintenance/capital intensive upgrades (4), Tenant quality (pay on time, pass background checks) (weighted 4), Current market strength (weighted 6)

Technology has actually leveled the playing field and made small local businesses able to compete on a national and global scale.

I’ve called the manufacturer in Spokane Washington and asked where to look for it (they only do stickers In two places and neither were there.

There are so many commercial avenues to sell - office, apartments, medical, land, manufacturing, warehouse, storage and more.

I personally find the Series LLC to be a great tool for the individual investor who is planning to expand their operation, as it allows for you to scale infinitely - check out this article to learn more.

Another benefit of having the properties nearby would be that you can test out rental rates/amenities and be able to profit on a larger scale when you find what works. 

As we look to grow faster and scale we are now starting to consider letting outside investors come into our deals.
