We’re coming straight from *The Ken McElroy Show* set, live with *Ken* and *Danille McElroy,* both real estate investors, but seeing very different realities. *Ken* focuses on *large multifamily* while *Danille* buys (and helps her clients buy) *single-family rentals.* Even though prices have fallen (dramatically) for multifamily but not single-family, *both Ken and Danille are seeing deeply discounted deals,* if you know how to spot them. Ken and Danille share their *exact real estate investing buy boxes,* guidance to investors starting in today’s market, the *key to spotting neighborhoods* with the best price growth potential, and the *dangerous risk to real estate most are ignoring,* a “canary in the coal mine” that Ken is paying attention to.
