How much are you making

[Joshua Manning]

Hello BP fam,

Just a quick question for those out there willing to answer. How much on a yearly basis would you say your income is from soley your real estate investments.

Also if your willing share how many units do you have, and do you do utilize

house flipping or buy and hold strategies more?

I'm just trying to get a good gauge on expected long term profitability and income from REI while putting together my investing strategy.

@Joshua Manning @Pearce G. is right, to many variables, and to many people lacking experiences or hanging on by a thread, if at all. We are on the larger side of things, few hundred units, full staff, contractors and all that comes with that size of business. Front end of buying a property with standard commercial financing, we pull down a 42% net margin. I'm told by the banks, our margin is one of the best in their portfolio of clients in that stage of the business for the DC region. We have a well oiled machine. We buy and hold only, and sell older properties for extra capital to buy many more properties when needed, but most the time we just put the net margin back into buying, remodeling, and growing the business. Good luck!
