Rich Dad Poor Dad - is a classic mindshift book helping you get in the entrepreneurial state of mind.Set for life - is perfect if you’re just starting out, looking to househack, or build a rental base.You can make money in real estate 1,000,000 different ways. 

I have a client who charges 100 dollars per month per licenced car to store classic cars in a roadside building.

In fact we have a few from the 1800's that were a challenge at first but classics now & rent in a heart beat.Got this one for around $8ok & it's never been vacant.

Then you could lose all credibility with this property owner and they avoid you and tell all of their friends from then on to ignore you.This is classic (want to be a wholesaler) syndrome but it sounds like you do not know the commercial retail market, how to evaluate these types of properties, what buyers are looking for, etc.If you still are to meet this owner you might want to spend day and night reading up on the topic.That is a very generous offer by Greg as time for professionals in this field can be thousands of dollars per hour.

This is classic BRRRR thinking. and hypothetically works if you first bought the property at the bottom of the last RE cycle and rode the appreciation cycle up to current levels.

You get a feel for this phenomenon when playing Cashflow Classic (free online), and you finance the entire down payment early in the game, before you've built up your income.

Same can be true of classic cars or anything else that you sell for a profit greater than what you put into it.I get your point, but it isn't black and white. 

As an advocate for middle-class rentals I didn't over-improve but focused on durable and classic improvements that transition well between tenants.

I found out, those policies are far more expensive than your classic homeowners policies, far more.  

It's a great classic brick, too.
