@Greg Junge - interesting. I agree according to most of the deals I've analyzed. I have found some potential in Mesa interestingly. I've been looking in different markets too - what other states are you looking at? Thank you!

Hey all! A couple of work friends and I decided to partner up on some real estate in the Phoenix area. We are looking for multifamily properties. Are any of you having any luck? How are the lenders and contractors out there? Also, anyone finding rockstar real estate agents that know how to find those distressed properties? I've never tried the wholesalers - anyone have luck with them?

Thank you and looking forward to meeting some of you Phoenicians!

Cheers!
Blake

My wife and I are looking to do our first BRRRR on a property and are scoping out a few different markets. Where are the rest of you all having good luck?

Cheers!
