Many many trades that available are overpriced and do sub-par work.

I plan to purchase a property needing renovations in order to use the BRRRR method which can help me purchase a 3rd and 4th property in the future. 

Thats the basics of the BRRRR method that is advertised around a lot.The usual restriction is the "6 month seasoning" period. 

I don't like that rate of return at all, and I don't feel it's wise to trade liquidity for a low rate of return.That said, IF my goals were aligned with owning my properties free-and-clear more quickly then even with the interest rates being low I'd look to pay off the properties sooner. 

You could passively invest in apartments and mortgages with companies like Fundrise, or publicly traded REITS like Avalon Bay and Equity Residential that are both trading at a significant discount considering they are collecting less than 1% fewer rents this year during Covid than they were last year.  

If i use the brrrr method how long in to the loan should I refinance it

Can someone tell me all the methods there are for real estate investing and what are the beat ones and even personal methods that you use

I am a licensed residential contractor so I think I've got that covered and can run the trades thru the process. 

@Sarah BridgesThe 1% rule is really just a quick sorting method if you have allot of options. it's not an end all be all for REI.If I was relocating and needed to find a deal I would try to understand the market first.

Just purchased a SFR for our family while using the house hacking method.
