Otherwise, they will abuse the relationship when they face a financial challenge.Tenants never want an increase in their rent, but winter might be a good time to increase rent as there is typically less inventory on the market and who wants to move during the Holidays?

Hi @Barbara Johannsen, I’ve only done notes through the Co-Investing Club, but I’ve seen firsthand how much relationships matter.

I’m looking for investor connection to build local relationships, as well as to give insight on my first contract!

The opportunities are out there — but I can’t scale at the level I want using just my own funds.That’s why I’m looking for two key relationships:1️⃣ A capital partner who believes in growth, creative structures, and long-term wealth building.2️⃣ A mentor who’s already scaled intelligently — someone who’s built systems, teams, and mindset around sustainable growth — and is open to a call or connection.I’ve done the work, proven the model, and know how to operate successfully.

It would be great to make long-term relationships with a lender who is interested in repeat project funding and paybacks.

If the deed or loan is still in your personal name (which is common even when the LLC “owns” it functionally), they include you to make sure there’s no gap in coverage.

If you’re in the Boston area and could use a reliable personal assistant to support you with property management, operations, or general tasks, I’d love to connect and help however I can.Thanks for reading!

As a general rule of thumb, expense ratios have an inverse relationship with property values.

Once you feel good about them, fly or drive there and meet them in person.

You’re moving from single-family to multifamily investing, consider DSCR or commercial loans that qualify based on rental income instead of personal income.
