I see the big boys here in CT trying to take my spot, and the heat is on now.

Anyone have any research on how this has affected other coastal markets or destination spots in our country?

Cleveland, Ohio has great value add opportunities and cashing out at 70-75% of the ARV is a good spot to be to have a healthy cash flow.

Pre Fab's speed and predictability sound sweet, but townhouses might fit the bill better.

The only reason I ask is because I’m a math major and I’m going to be working on getting my PhD in mathematical finance and going into the hedge fund private equity world I was just wondering if you could apply this advanced math to things like on a value add deal where you want to buy an apartment and raise rents but you don’t want to many vacancies so you need to calculate the sweet spot to maximize profit.

The family is sitting around watching football (American or European football - doesn't matter).Daughter is in the full bath, plastering on the war paint (makeup) for a big date and she's taking her sweet time, as daughters are wont to do.  

(CNBC) – Texas snagged the top spot on CNBC's list of America's top states for businesses.The Lone Star state scored 1,651 out of 2,500 points, making it the only state to be named a four-time winner since the study's creation in 2007.

My sweet spot is vacation rentals and assessing highest and best performance in various markets, looking at NOI vs CAP, evaluating acquisition, expenses, exit strategy, and modelling for various scenarios with a near infinite number of levers we can tweak to account for any nuance in any variable. 

I would focus on making your vacation rental the perfect spot for you and your fiancé and chances are, it will be perfect for other visitors, as well. 

So, if you happen to be doing well financially, but are unaccredited, you'd be shooting yourself in the foot relative to your chances of getting into a deal with a syndicator who accepts sophisticated money, because they wouldn't want to loose 2 out of the 35 spots for one person.2.
