    @Brian Briscoe was Fannie Mae small balance hard to get?  What qualifications did they take you through?

    @Mashika Johnson - it was a syndication, so I only put $100k in, but we raised a total of $2M.

    @Account Closed - main requirements were net worth and experience. My group had the net worth requirement, but we had to partner with someone with more experience to get the loan.  Fannie changes every day, but at the time they were looking for 2+ years of multifamily exp.

    @Alex Olson -- Lots of great things happening in Upstate SC. Lots of growth and new businesses moving in, lots of activity, city council and county are committed to improving, etc. It's my favorite area, but we're also looking in other southeast markets.
