If you had $300k how would you use it to generate maximum cashflow

[David Yee]

Hello! I am considering selling ~$300k in stock that I've accumulated over the past 10 years. How would you suggest I use this money to generate the maximum amount of monthly cashflow? I was considering purchasing a single rental property with all cash to maximize cash flow. 

Thank you in advance!

Does your market offer Duplex/Triplex/Fourplex housing? Depending on the price point if you could get two of those with reasonable 50% leverage you'll be on your way. I looked through our records trying to figure out the point when the real estate investing gets interesting. Lots of variables. This could get you 6-8 units if you shop patiently which is a great starting point.

Please do not send any money off to companies that advertise real estate "syndications" online. This is not true real estate investing - you're investing in an investment promoter who may eventually invest some of what you send him into real estate but you'll have zero control over the investment once you send off the funds. Many threads on here about being unable to cash out, losing principal, not getting any updates about their funds, etc.
