"New Construction as Relief: Homebuilding will play a key role in keeping pace with growth—new builds have already been the backbone of Huntsville’s housing ecosystem"Where do they think these new builds are going to go? 

We believe that the combination of these factors will support a healthier NOI; however, your point is well-taken that it needs to be proven with rigorous due diligence.Again, thank you for the sharp analysis.

The RCIC ecosystem I built can see through Crexi and Loopnet and the most "paywalls".

I’m a licensed real estate agent here who works exclusively with out-of-state investors, and Memphis has a lot of what you're looking for:Low acquisition costs (often $100K–$150K for value-add SFRs)Strong rental demand and solid rent-to-price ratiosLandlord-friendly lawsEstablished investor ecosystem (contractors, PMs, investor-friendly lenders, etc.)I’ve worked with several investors in a similar stage.

and some general tips from more experienced investors to stay more in touch with the community, contractors etc that will lead to a better healthier business would be nice. thanks all!

Your transaction should pass seamlessly from one professional to the next who are all working together in the same ecosystem to make your deal work from beginning to the end and then repeat ad nauseum.This is what we have assembled in 2025 in Metro Detroit. 

The New York City examples illustrate how this new ecosystem works: Hakimian Capital took control of a Bronx apartment building via bankruptcy after buying the debt, American Exchange Group acquired 1375 Broadway after purchasing a $200 million note, and Yellowstone Real Estate took over the Maxwell Hotel following a $170 million note purchase.

That can work if you’re comfortable funding that loss for years, but make sure it won’t strain your other investing or personal goals.If you sell now, yes, you’ll lock in a loss, but you free up capital and mental bandwidth to redeploy into an asset with healthier fundamentals whether that’s in Colorado or elsewhere.

That's a sign of a healthier, more sustainable market.In Waco, we’re seeing a similar trend but on a smaller scale.I'm always looking for connections in the Austin area, feel free to reach out.

As someone actively involved in underwriting and evaluating larger multifamily assets, I would be interested to see BiggerPockets expand tools and conversations that support that part of the ecosystem, particularly around structuring partnerships, raising capital, and analyzing stabilized versus value-add opportunities.Looking forward to your leadership and the direction BiggerPockets takes under your vision.
