He himself is an active investor in the City for years, does a lot of section 8 and market rentals, is a solid combination of analytical and boots on the ground so you would get insights as to what would work on paper and then the practical aspects of neighborhoods, scope of work, rehabs, etc.

Is there a town/city with better growth potential in midlands? 

We actually have a mutual classmate (from 145) who was my main point of contact for a few years regarding all city programs (fheps, sec. 8 and SOTA).

I have also expanded my search from focusing on 3-4 markets to now looking at just about every city, almost desperate to find the next deal.Has anyone else particularly struggled in 2025 with high interest rates and home prices?

@Zach Rosenow You can find CF rental properties in smaller markets, a few mid west cities, and through the BRRRR strategy.

Glad to hear you will be coming back to the windy city. 

Particularly Las Vegas but other cities can throw in numbers as well. 

I am interested in building relationships with operators who are currently rehabbing projects in the city and exchanging insights on neighborhoods, construction realities, timelines, and what you’re seeing in today’s NYC market.

Over the last year I have built up a strong Home Repairs business (Eastern NC Home Repairs) that services New Bern, Greenville, Jacksonville, Morehead City, Kinston, and Havelock.

I have over 25 rentals in the city, flip 2 - 3 properties per year and build some new construction.
