It started after my own family had a tough experience, and it’s turned into my mission.I joined BP because I want to learn from folks who’ve scaled niche real estate models, raised capital the smart way, and built businesses that balance returns with impact.Outside of work, I coach youth softball/baseball and get humbled weekly by 12-year-olds who play better than I ever did.Looking forward to connecting, sharing, and learning with you all.Hi Everyone , I'm Brandon Schwab with Shepherd Premier Senior Living Fund in NW Burbs of Chicago.

Nice work turning that into a co-living play.

For many investors, the first step is strategic refinancing to free up capital while keeping equity in play.

Yeah i would never invest with them again - they made bad decisions, and played chicken with their lender, losing it all - this after 3 years of value-add to the asset - why not just sell?

@George AgyapongSection 8 isn’t a red flag by itself — on a 4-bed it can actually be a huge stability play if the lease and payment breakdown check out.

If you played it safe your entire life you will not get very far.

When a tenant withholds rent due to issues like a missing Certificate of Occupancy (CFO) or code violations, it's important to understand both your rights and theirs, as local laws can play a big role in how this is handled.One of the first things you might consider is consulting with a local landlord-tenant attorney.

I always tell people the first deal is about learning the ropes and getting comfortable with managing tenants, understanding expenses, and seeing how the numbers really play out month to month.

Extremes that are not sustainable over any duration as it's just a Japan type arbitrage play. 

Those are good problems to have.If your PITI is roughly $1,600 and rent is in the $1,600–$1,700 range, it’s basically break-even on cash flow, which isn’t bad if you’re using BRRRR as a long-term equity and appreciation play — but it’s not a great hold if you’re looking for immediate income.
