Townhome or Traditional single family home in the San Diego, CA market place. Which of these properties would make a better investment? If I'm looking to BRRRR. Anyone with experience on this?

If you're looking to employ the BRRRR strategy, I would definitely recommend targeting single family homes over townhomes.

The BRRRR strategy necessitates adding quite a bit of value in this market, which is much harder to do with a townhome due to your renovations being more or less limited to primarily cosmetic interior improvements.

The HOA fees that come with townhome ownership eat directly in to your returns as well, which will hurt you when you reach the last "R" of the acronym - repeat.

That said, let me know if you'd like to chat about the best way to go about the BRRRRR strategy in SD. I'd be more than happy to help!

Hey @Melinda Pajak

The refi/exchange dilemma is definitely perplexing for a lot of owners.

As others have suggested, the best step to take before anything else is to assess how your property is currently performing. Looking at several different metrics, the best route becomes much more clear when you’ve defined your current position. That way, you can objectively weigh the risk-reward tradeoff of the various options available to you. 

Please let me know if you’d like any assistance  with this assessment. I’d be more than happy to help!
