Ardian Selimi 22 with 200k liquid looking to get my first property
8 March 2024 | 31 replies
I have 200k in liquid cash (yes this was self earned thru 5yrs of sacrifices and hard work 12-16hr days 7days a week with maybe a month in the summers as break to see family back home, but i dont want to do this forever) My dad and I want to be partners going into these deals. there is a new construction 4plex i am looking to build which will be 775k that i will put 25% down (half me half my dad) which will cash flow net 2k /mo if i rent it out LT (COC of 11% which isnt bad and apparently my agent who recently worked on a neighboring new build said the appraisal after its built is mid/high 800s, also my plan is after 2yrs to REFI at lower rate). i am considering to have 2 of the units as MTR for local nurses or construction crews which of course can increase profits much more. i also have a 3acre property that i am thinking to build small 2bd 1ba cabins and use as STR/MTR/LTR. but i am also wanting to do do STR as i love the concept and have watched Robuilt everyday learning from him. i am looking to buy land in a mountain/ski town (189k 10acres) and build a beautiful aframe and use as a STR. all these property ideas are close by to me so i will have a close look on them and will manage myself. i have just been consuming knowledge endlessly the last 3months in preparation for this decision.but as you can see my head is all over and im unsure what the correct first step will be. i have many goals and visions of what i want to do i just need some help making a correct first decision on those who are far more experienced than me in this real estate space so i use my capital in the most efficient way. i understand real estate is long game and i have no issues with that but i would like to at a minimum cashflow 100k a month by the time im 30. this is a big goal but i have 8yrs to do this. thank you for your help i look forward to the responses(side note: i am not considering house hacking as i live with my family, this will possibly be an option in the future)

Logan M. Pitfalls of CAP Rate and Mobile Home Parks
6 March 2024 | 9 replies
CAP Rates can be a beautiful thing, they allow an investor to get a quick comparison of properties without digging too deep into the deal.When using CAP rates on MHPs I want to give a few warnings because there are additional variables to consider.

Rodney Love Which real estate strategy works best to escape the 9-5 rat race?

her and her husband both retired from their day jobs and have all these gorgeous renovated SFRs. the key was that they got better and better at BRRRing and the nest egg grew just a little bit with each cashout/refi, so they could do bigger/better deals, then multiple deals at once. this obviously took time, but they're getting ALL the perks of REI: debt paydown, appreciation, tax benefits, cashflow, the opportunity to provide beautiful safe housing in the city they live in... if you BRRR'd your way to a few STRs instead of LTRs, you could probably arrive at that 7k/mo number pretty quick. also consider BRRRing to MTRs. gator lending is short-term / transational lending, usually to wholesalers for deposits. pace morby has a course on it. most people i'm sure take the course, do nothing with the information, make no money, then complain and say the course didn't work lol. but i do know tons of people actually make great money gator lending.flips obviously work too but you usually LOSE money on the first one, break even if you're fortunate... it's very active work too, so doing flips while you're still working full time, idk, not a fan personally. you'd have to KEEP flipping to KEEP making 7k/mo, vs with BRRRing you'll eventually get to that 7k/mo and can stop or regroup.

Interestingly, they've recently negotiated a re-purchase price with us IF we bring new funding to the table.The rehab is required for several reasons: (a) correct the damage the bank has allowed to happen to the property improvements these past few years (known problems include completely destroyed pool makeover; wild animals living inside the residence; flooring missing in sections of the rec center building; destruction of the decorative main entry gate mechanism; lots of dead landscaping; as well as latent defects not known to us such as working plumbing, HVAC & water services) AND (b) expansion & upgrading of the accommodations (converting the private residence to a 2-story lodge with the restaurant/bar, reception/check-in, movie room, public restrooms, gym/sauna/steam room/massage therapy room; enlarged pool & deck area with climate-controlled cover for year round use; conversion of former restaurant/bar building to a general store selling venue collectibles & wearables, selected pre-packaged foods, sundries, RV & camping items, bagged ice & a propane refill station; construction of a free-standing event center; free-standing cabins; enlarged & upgraded RV park with its own small restroom/coin-op laundry building; outdoor activity areas; new landscaping & fencing; new parking area & entry drives (personal car & RVs).We know our target audience having created and operated the former version of this resort for almost years creating an initial membership base numbering about 1,100.

Jon Martin Do guests even use dressers?
5 March 2024 | 27 replies
Looking through listings recently I've noticed that a lot of them don't have dressers, and if they do you can tell it's mostly decorative because they don't look very useful (short/shallow drawers, minimal space etc).
