The issue is, I'm not sure if my income will be enough to cover 2x the monthly mortgage payment that most loans require.

I have a buddy that has been doing flips for a few years and he now has investors approach him asking to get in on his flips so he lets them cover the down payment/entry fee's for 30% return on their money.

For example when someone wants to have financial freedom and spend more time with family, but then sets a goal by creating a heavy active income stream that involves their personal involvement daily.

This has to cover your debt payments also.3.  

or perhaps a reverse build to suit where the data center operator controls the buildout and the planning etc.I've not been involved in a data center first hand but the central OH market is pretty data and warehouse heavy as far as developments go and to echo the posts here, the power requirements are wild, and the red tape to get that power to the site is often cumbersome. 

He had this ambitious flip lined up and decided to tap into a 0% business card deal to cover the rehab costs.

So invest in some kind of real estate like apartments that need heavy lift and get the bonus.Otherwise life settlement partnerships can also give you big deduction year 1. 

Has anyone found a property manager in south Florida (that covers Fort Lauderdale) that they really like? 

Early on, rents would remain market-aligned to ensure the portfolio generates the income needed to cover expenses, pay investors, and reinvest in expansion.

So what if the heloc amount is enough to cover 20% down on investment property and cover renovations.
