Investment Info:Single tenant 15,300 SF Industrial in a submarket of Albuquerque, NM
I started investing in 2013 in SFRs.  I would buy them distressed, fix them up, tenant them and put long term debt on them.  As we ...

@Justin R. there is focus on sprawl and in-fill building...nothing in this city will ever crest 40-50 stories I can guarantee every new development is mixed use...and developers are reclaiming thousands of acres of corn field for ****** one-off residential developments for the lamest buyers in the market to call home...multi-prong approach of intentional underbuilding and constant fights with the locals who want neighborhoods to stay stagnant.

I have have experience working for a big commercial real estate REIT for over 8 years but have also done accounting for small investors (friends and family members with residential rental properties).

Here are a few other residential contractors in Portland that are not quite as big as America's Perfect Home.  

Hi @Nick LaRocca I just passed my exam and said I only want to do commercial but now I am testing both commercial and luxury residential to see what I actually like best.

Did some real halfway work and made me start looking elsewhere.The town did not accept the hardship to convert a commercial unit to a residential unit.

@Ryan KovacsAbout twenty years ago a couple of San Francisco residential co-ops were able to successfully convert to condominium ownership.

See B5-7-01, High LTV Refinance Loan and Borrower Eligibility for additional information on these loans.The number of financed properties calculation includes:the number of one- to four-unit residential properties where the borrower is personally obligated on the mortgage(s), even if the monthly housing expense is excluded from the borrower’s DTI in accordance with B3-6-05, Monthly Debt Obligationsthe total number of properties financed, not to the number of mortgages on the property or the number of mortgages sold to Fannie Mae (a multiple unit property counts as one property, such as a two-unit);the borrower’s principal residence if it is financed; andthe cumulative total for all borrowers (though jointly financed properties are only counted once).

Is this process landlord friendly or a hamster-wheel?   How often is this necessary and how difficult are these to maintain?   Anecdotes and/or horror stories appreciated!

The property is classified by the county as a residential property.
