I am currently a junior business marketing major with a concentration in professional sales at Samford University.

Quote from @Dan Farsht: I am looking to connect with other hard money lenders in the upper Midwest (our business is currently concentrated in the Greater Milwaukee Area). 

i have seen many do very well getting on a team.Myself personally I would concentrate on listings 1000%  Buyers only if well knownand wont waste your time. 

The Fed may be forced to cut rates, but if inflation does not ease, they could remain hesitant.Investor takeaway: Investors should watch for distressed sales in areas where job losses are more concentrated.

Will they be mostly concentrated around the coasts or more midwest or maybe down south for example? 

I'm looking to lessen the load of work and concentrate on my exit strategy sometime within the next 10 years if not sooner.

I'd be interested in owning a single family home in the area I am concentrated in just to see how that plays out one day.  

Right now there's huge concentration, but as this continues to build out and we see north of the high 30s GW by 10 years from now it'll be almost a requirement to keep some type of locality based risk assessment and to diversify. 

That's mostly because I don't want to be too heavily concentrated in one area, but partially because it's been rough.

But I don't find that the ones that do exist are more concentrated in the mountains or the cities.
