While I would have built $150,000 in equity, the cash flow simply doesn’t work.Now, let’s compare this to the market conditions when BRRRR was highly promoted (pre-2020).Interest Rate: 4.75%Monthly Payment: $3,057/monthRent: $3,600/monthIn this scenario, I’d be making over $500/month with $23,000 left in the deal, resulting in a gross 26% cash-on-cash return—an excellent deal.As you can see, rates and prices play a critical role in the viability of the BRRRR strategy.

Now, in 2024, we're seeing $4,000 per month just on the main unit and $1,800 on the other unit of the duplex.Long story short, it's a long term play.

I recently have connected with investors who are interested in assisted living facilities, with the play of unlocking government funding, not sure if there's similar opportunities with SL facilities.

New construction in a saturated market isn’t always the best play if you’re looking for steady returns.A place like Rochester has way better fundamentals—lower buy-in, strong rent-to-price ratios, and stable demand from universities, hospitals, and major employers.

Hey Eli, Great question on the 6% and it does play a factor into the cash flow.

There are to many variables in play.  

You need to remember that, hopefully, this is a long-term play for you, so work with a trusted STR designer (I have great recommendations), and spend the money upfront so you can be the most successful in your area.

Those are long plays for me.

He didn’t just answer my questions—he showed me how this game is played at a much higher level.
