Know Your Market - If it's to buy, have you familiarized yourself with the NJ market, do you know your buy box, do you know your down payment and closing costs, interest rates etc..Know Your Goal - what's your end game in investing?

@Gregory PeeplezThat’s awesome, Gregory — sounds like you’re setting things up the right way with the entities and clear buy box.

Action step: pick one submarket, run five deals a week through a strict buy box, and only pursue what survives your worst‑case sheet.

Great place to start: pick one simple buy box and build reps.

If new deals in your buy box still cash flow conservatively with today’s rates and taxes, add one, but if not, focus on debt paydown and efficiency until they do.

Once the asset checks all boxes, you need people to do the work. 

@Jorge Vazquez I am very confused by your post and ask, because an insurance policy isn't something left to mystery, the policy states rather clearly what coverage will be. 

Third, refine an investor resume with your buy‑box examples, sample deal analysis, and a 60‑second intro; send it after every conversation.

There are a LOT of operators that are scrambling at the moment, and dont come close to our buy-box, however I do invest with 3 larger operators (BAM is one of them), and overall I still believe their underwriting is sound and viable.Im not at liberty to discuss details, however I see some good things on the horizon with this group.

Tight box, steady audits, clear remedies.
