Will someone be acquiring hospitality debt/assets in the next 18 months at incredible prices.

I've already read a couple of the books you recommended, like "Rich Dad, and Poor Dad" and currently reading "The Book on Rental Property Investing," which is incredibly eye-opening.

This would require incredibly expensive work as we would have to cut through a public street.

This might entail buying a single-family home with rental potential and living in one area while renting out the other units, or it could entail buying a multifamily property and living in one apartment while renting out the others.Financing Options: Look into traditional mortgages, FHA loans (for home hacking), and other inventive financing techniques.

Developing contacts with wholesalers, going to neighbourhood real estate events, and networking with other real estate professionals can all help you gain access to off-market acquisitions.Utilise direct marketing techniques to get in touch with property owners directly.

Also, the denominator is "initial investment," not "total investment" I just get somewhat wary of inflated numbers that make something look better than it is -- saying that my NWROI is this incredible percentage - but an ongoing maintenance concern/capital expense actually makes the property break - -even or even worse. 

if you can build at 50% of after value I'd hire you and I build the cheapest of anyone I know in our market and minimum rates. there's 3 builders that build at our rate. only place I can get us to 50% equity is in miami florida and that is new construction that is selling at $1000 per square foot and up and high density 300+ unit underwriting with incredible economies of scale. columbus has lower construction costs but lower exit. we focus on urban core. my best suggestion is look at urban not suburban for higher valuations. you can't control what new construction appraises at so do it in less risky areas. 

LOL Jokes aside, it sounds like it's incredibly difficult to find something with good cash flow in Columbus, so my thought right now is to start in Cleveland for cashflow, then once I build a stronger porfolio I'll start adding Columbus

I just got Batchleads and will use them for information and skiptracing to see if that might be better.Online Ads- I've used online ads in the past as well, and I used to feel like this could be the most useful lead generation technique as everything is inbound.
