I found this blog today and thought it was worth sharing. MultifamilyInsight.net
The first two posts are pretty good reads for the small, multi-family investor. There is one about "Why People Sell" and another about "How to Validate Rental Income". Check it out.

A special report from Marcus and Millichap and NREI show that investors are planning more acquisitions in 2011. Improving fundamentals, lower interest rates and prospects for rent growth are fueling investor confidence. The data points and information produced from this research survey highlight the optimism across the apartment industry and I suggest you read the full report.

New home development coming near Wade/RBC Center
Lennar Homes (www.lennar.com) recently purchased 40 acres of land near the Intersection of Wade Ave. And I-40. The site is very close to the RBC Center where the Carolina Huricanes and NC State Basketball teams compete. Five years ago you could have expected the end-product home to be $400K to well over $500K. However, Lennar's ability to purchase the land at "today's" prices should result in townhomes and signle family homes between $170,000 and $370,000. If that proves true, Lennar will probably be very successful selling in the new neighborhood...to be called "Inside Wade." For more about the deal read David Bracken's article in the News and Observer.
