STR, Flipping vs Boring and Profitable Investing
It's tempting to chase quick riches in real estate: flips, short-term rentals, hot markets. But true my wealth primary have comes from something less glamorous: boring real estate.
What's "boring"? Long-term buy-and-hold rentals in stable neighborhoods, prioritizing consistent cash flow and responsible management over rapid appreciation. It's about avoiding speculation and focusing on fundamentals.
Why I think is it so powerful?
- Consistent cash flow: Reliable income to build wealth.
- Less stress: Stable tenants and well-maintained properties mean fewer headaches.
- Long-term appreciation: Steady growth over time.
- Resilience: Weathers market downturns better.
Ami I chasing "shiny objects" or building a solid foundation? Are you prioritizing short-term gains over long-term wealth? What are your experiences with "boring" real estate?
Single family long term rentals has been working for me. It is boring. I love it.
However, I really want to hear form the flippers and short-term rental investors to see what I may be missing out on.
