Not to mention the insanely high distributions.

They mention returns of 25-36 percent. 

@Don Konipol  Don talk about a book on this subject by I think its Jimmy Napier which was written years ago But Don says its the bible I personally have not read it As I got my education working for a HML in Oakland CA and got on the job training as it where .He was a legend and I was very fortunate to find my way to his company and then eventually end up running it.

As mentioned above, advertise in more places (Booking.com, Airbnb/VRBO,  Zillow, Furnished Finder, etc). 

Also as Don mentioned I saw many private money HML melt down when they took on PPM type investors and did not have deal flow or could never match money raised to deal flow..

I am not really interested in taking the land to any of those levels.The course I mentioned gets into some of the next level.

"jesse" who I will call him, The cell mate friend of that rotten GC I mentioned earlier.

Building a duplex on a single-family lot can be a great way to generate additional rental income, especially in a market where multifamily properties are scarce.To evaluate whether this is a viable strategy, here are a few steps to consider:Zoning and Permits: Since you mentioned the property is zoned R-2, make sure to check the local regulations regarding building a duplex.

i think what @Bob Stevens mentioned is that his zip code average income is equal to his Ohio rentals, while home price 3x differences.
