Hello All,I'm interested in some valuable feedback on the multi-family real estate market in Greensboro, NC.My research has been formulated from various sources; however, I would like to hear from a few BP members that are in the trenches and/or currently invested in this market.Key indicators like job and wage growth seem to be holding steady for the last several years and property values seem to be increasing steadily.Can someone give me their view on the current cap rates & vacancy rates in their comp set?

The upside is regarding the construction loan is you can capitalize the interest during construction increasing your basis in the project, The downside is you will need to bring a decent down payment and if you don't own the land or have any construction experience, and you'll need a partner with developer experience especially if this is your first project.I would recommend a JV with a developer, maybe a reduction on the developer fee in exchange for something on the backend of project completion, there are a few good ones out there that do small projects as well.
