Talked to a legend that’s been investing in multifamily real estate for 40 years.
I asked him what he thought about this market.
"Oh, it's terrible for acquisitions. Worst market I've seen. If you already own assets, though, it's great. We're at 96% occupancy."
Said the majority of his career he's been buying strong B class deals in good markets at 8-10%+ cap rates on actuals.
Deals were cash flowing 12%+. Even the on-market deals were solid.
Asked if he would consider taking a deal for a lower cash on cash return or if there is any urgency to buy more property?
He said: "Why would anyone invest in a real estate deal unless it pays over 10%? If it's 6% cash flow on interest only debt, that's a terrible deal. Just buy the S&P."
@humangirl0@WAPolicyGreen I live in Capitol Hill (so a bit closer than London) and I believe this observation is not only possible at any given time, but it is also probable.
An absolutely incredible story about the failure of King County and Seattle's policies on drug use and homelessness.
A system that spends hundreds of millions of dollars to oversee misery and death is not compassion.
It doesn't have to be like this. 1/2 #waleg
@santhonys@BenMillerise did @fundrise take management fees based on a % of the total valuation when $VCX was manipulated to $500+ while most of your shareholders were locked up and unable to sell? That’s just a wealth transfer from paralyzed shareholders to @Fundrise, no? @GetVCX
