Its pricey to build out office, plumbing and elec capacity.

Became very unresponsive very quickly, did not complete agreed upon work, made false claims about capacity and what they would do, etc.

I agree that many West Coast investors with the capital capacity often prefer to operate solo.

You also have a larger rental income capacity if you use certain locations and get into STR, LTR, even Co-living that is growing faster!

I’m in the DMV area and have always wanted to buy a multifamily but most of them are out of budget and the ones I can afford are generally in worse neighborhoods(Deanwood, anacostia, congress heights, etc…) NACA gives amazing benefits which is why I wanted to use it in the fullest capacity to get something I wouldn’t have otherwise been able to afford without it.

Some of our markets that have historically been closed to the tri-county area are opening up capacity which is encouraging to see. 

The problem with Laredo right now is that the growth has doubled or tripled the capacity of the infrastructure. 

My goal is to steadily complement my current income, and eventually move into real estate in some capacity full-time.I started by listening to some old Ron Legrand cds (from 2004ish).

I recently had a post removed looking to network with local fix and flip investors simply due to the mention of my current capacity as a private money lender (without any promotion whatsoever) merely because the post "may arise in deal making".

Understanding your borrowing capacity and securing pre-approval can give you a competitive edge when making offers.Embarking on a real estate investment journey can be exciting and rewarding.
