Topic: Building the Future: Mixed-Use Development and Affordable Housing

The Live Local Act has a significant impact on mixed-use developments in Florida, primarily because it incentivizes and facilitates the integration of affordable housing with commercial and retail spaces. “Live Local” refers to Florida’s “Live Local Act,” a legislation aimed at addressing affordable housing and zoning reform in the state. Signed into law in 2023, the Live Local Act introduces significant changes to zoning laws, with the goal of encouraging affordable housing development across Florida.

Post: Building Wealth Over Time: Multifamily vs. Single-Family

SWFL REIA General Meeting

When: 9/18/2024

Topic: Building Wealth Over Time: Multifamily vs. Single-Family

When it comes to building wealth over time through real estate, both multifamily and single-family properties offer distinct advantages and challenges. Multifamily properties, with their ability to generate multiple streams of income from a single location, often provide more stable and consistent cash flow, making them a popular choice for investors seeking long-term growth. These properties can also benefit from economies of scale, where operational costs per unit are lower compared to single-family homes. On the other hand, single-family homes typically offer higher appreciation potential in certain markets, along with easier financing and a broader pool of potential buyers when it comes time to sell. Investors must weigh the potential for steady income and operational efficiency of multifamily investments against the appreciation and liquidity advantages of single-family homes. The right choice depends on an investor’s goals, market conditions, and risk tolerance.

Quote from @Carlo D.:

Does the Garn-St. Germain Act not protect this in any way? (aside it's not fraud or misrepresentation when the transfer was made)


 I always title in a revocable grantor trust (land trust). It passes the first glance, if they want to call the note they will. Titling in a trust is problematic for insurance as well. I have always used Subto as a short-term funding solution. The current concentration of most in that space is trying to hold long term. Which happens but can change quickly.

You are trying to invest in real estate, while they are merely traders looking to sell. Many wholesalers don't own any assets themselves, so how can you expect them to truly understand the market? I commend their effort for getting up and taking action, but many don't do the necessary homework and instead rely on YouTube gurus.

Occasionally, you can find great deals from a wholesaler, but be prepared to spend a lot of time sifting through subpar offers to uncover the gems.
