This is why foreclosures are at historic lows (HousingWire).

You can pull historic averages, seasonality, and occupancy rates daily, monthly, and annually.

I would suggest making trusted relationships with realtors, property managers, and investors. 

Banks have unsecrued LOC's that are not reported I have two of them with different banks but these are VERY difficult to secured and require 6 figure deposit relationships to 7 figure deposit relationships..

No attorney-client, fiduciary, or professional relationship is established through this communication.

This can come from many different directions, but most commonly it is people that you have a personal relationship with and/or a referral from a close friend that I trust, especially when you are starting out, and even then it is still hard because you need to not just have these friends, but they also have to have some liquidity to invest.And to address your other question about track record in SFR vs MF, to some extent you are correct on the assessing deals. 

But the real key isn’t just what they do… it’s whether the way they do it aligns with your strategy.Here’s what I mean:If you travel often and prefer written records of every update, a manager who only calls you might drive you crazy.If your investment approach is long-term appreciation, working with someone who only focuses on fast tenant placement — without an eye on tenant quality or property care — could hurt you down the road.If you rely heavily on construction or renovations as part of your growth, you’ll want a manager with established relationships and systems to coordinate that, not just a reactive approach.The bottom line: there’s no universal “right way” to manage properties.

Our approach merges proactive maintenance, fast response times, and genuine relationship-building.

The news and markets scare people, the interest rates are average historically, but still consider high.

Off-market deals refer to properties that are not listed publicly but can still be acquired through direct outreach or connections.By leveraging your network and building relationships with developers and other industry professionals, you can gain access to off-market deals.
