Hey, welcome! Great to see you jumping into commercial and multifamily investing—there’s a ton of opportunity there once you get the basics down. I’m on a similar path here in the Chicago area, and getting that foundational knowledge early has made a huge difference.
If you're just getting started, I'd recommend:
-
Learning how to analyze deals (NOI, cap rate, DSCR, etc.)
-
Getting familiar with financing options for 5+ unit properties (since they fall under commercial lending)
-
Connecting with brokers who specialize in multifamily or mixed-use properties in your target markets
