I have a good amount of capital looking for cash purchases for multi family properties to start my real estate investing.

It has been a long time since I have found a foreclosure property at auction that wasn't occupied . I have moved to a strategy where occupants can be quickly ejected. Am I alone in this approach?

 The rates don't work. I did  the numbers on # 459k didn't work 

I would certainly consider a seller financed deal if it was more attractive than what a conventional or DSCR lender can offer. That being said, it's rare a seller will want to hold the note for a full 30 years, so it's good to be prepared with a solid exit strategy to refi or sell the property whenever they want their money back.

Happy to chat and see if I can help you find anything better, depending on what the seller is offering! 

 Capital gain tax is a killer. Any other ways or is that pretty much it?

Hi Everyone!

I am an established residential realtor here in Southern Maine. I work as a junior agent on a two-person team, with a lot of direct mentorship from my team lead that is invaluable for residential investment projects. I recently onboarded a client who is looking to do a larger scale commercial deal, ideally NNN retail or industrial, not residential. My team lead and I both have limited experience in non-residential commercial REI, and so I've been binging all the content I can about it. I want to be as proficient as possible, as the topic is so incredibly complex, and so I'm curious if there are any excellent books anyone recommends for a crash course on the intricacies of commercial rei. I'm also curious if there are any online resources anyone recommends for analyzing localized commercial market data.

P.S. If anyone is a commercial investor in southern Maine, let me buy you coffee and pick your brain- DM me. 

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for advice on how to leverage my brokerage account to acquire a rental property — either locally here in New Jersey or out-of-state — that can cash flow 8–10% annually after all costs and expenses.

Here’s the catch: I’d like to avoid using margin loans or anything with high interest rates.

Is it possible to make this work in today’s market? Are there strategies or opportunities I might be overlooking — whether that’s structure, location, or creative financing?

Would love any suggestions, tips, or experiences from those who’ve done something similar. Open to both residential and small multifamily options.

Thanks in advance! currently at 915k to 1mm 

Good afternoon Jaycee. 

I spent around 15K in repairs.

My statement about starting a land bank was a off handed comment probably incorrectly using a term to reference my 1st investment property. I currently have 4 residential locations and 2 commercial locations. 

I have considered this, also the thoughts of putting nicer finishes in our quadplex to somewhat compete with the new luxury apartment minus the amenities of course, seeing if we could slightly drive up rents. The luxury apartment rents aren't cheap specially for the midwest so maybe there's a silver lining, it is also near a very good hospital so there is high income and a growing area. 

Are there any banks, credit unions, or financial institutions that offer construction loans for a 2-family duplex in Massachusetts, specifically for investment purposes? I'm not looking for hard money lenders. I've already contacted a dozen banks and credit unions, but most only offer duplex construction loans if the property is owner-occupied. I’d really appreciate any leads or recommendations!
