Quote from @Cameron Fowler: Hey BP Community,I am wanting to get into flipping and I have the construction experience but am lacking the cash or money to fund a deal.

As I dive into all the different paths I can take (single family vs multi-family, short term vs long term, cash flow vs appreciation, local vs out of state, etc..) my mind is scrambling and I've ended up doing nothing at all.I'm looking to join a mastermind that meets consistently and can really motivate one another to take our businesses to the next level. 

Start by networking with local investors through Augusta REI meetups, BiggerPockets forums, and Facebook groups.

I do direct booking through the Houfy website, taking credit card payment by Square. 

I live in a community where half the people never lock their doors.

I'd be happy to visit about the market.  

With that said Phoenix had one of the highest home price declines in the last market down turn.  

As you are finding out, it is so local that the next door building effects your investment. 

Both investments can offer tax benefits, but real estate typically has the edge.

Obviously I have grounds to terminate the lease, but I'm wondering if legally I can just increase his rent to cover the extra wear and tear.
