So look at how you can minimize expenses (it's always the right thing to do anyways) and how you can ensure that if push comes to shove, you have the property that is in solid condition with the curb appeal to boost any appraisal and attract investors like me who buy year-round regardless of the economic cycle of the moment. 

Analyst at heart, I guess.Ive had so many basement waterproofing companies come by and most recommend interior drainage systems.

Thankfully our offer and being a newlyweds (using all of our wedding money) became the most appealing offer to the bank owned property (they had a heart!).

Have you boosted a Facebook add on marketplace?

Here are areas I recommend: Austin; Roseland; South Chicago, South Lawndale, Hedgewish, East Side, New City, West Pullman, Chatham, Humboldt Park, West Garfield Park, Chicago Lawn, Gage Park, East Garfield, Little Village, WoodlawnSome of the areas above are not for the those with weak hearts, but opportunities exist.

My main point: In most cases, these high interest rates (especially with hard money/private financing) will diminish your returns rather than boost them.

The tax on UDFI will put a dent in the boost that leverage provides, but will not come close to canceling out the benefits of investing using other people's money.

Thank you for the boost of confidence, I appreciate it.

@Tim McKelvyI am considering building MF in Greenville SC, also.Development is not for the faint of heart especially with debt markets all over the place.Ballpark, figure it will cost $150K to $175K to build a new apartment unit including land soft costs infrastructure debt service etc etc etc.No way to answer your question in a vacuum. 

Technology and Artificial Intelligence can get you busted in a heart beat these days :(
