Once I've completed these initial projects and built up some capital, my long-term goal is to transition into buy-and-hold investments in potentially more affordable markets to maximize cash flow and scale up.Right now, I'm particularly interested in investing locally here in the Seattle metro area.

My initial investment there started off a bit rocky.

I would also ask them about cash for keys since I would initially offer the tenant this. 

How did the unaccredited investor access the 506(b) syndication initially?

Getting his/her initial reaction could open the door to an agreement that works for both of you.

Initially, I had listed it and found a buyer, but the deal fell through when the buyer had to back out.

Initial Equity: The discount you achieve when buying below market value.

I think initially it makes sense to find properties that already have finished basements, in-law suites, etc. as converting those spaces to ADUs will be inexpensive and create a significant amount of rental income ($2,000/month+ in most areas close to the city).

The neighborhood has been flourishing, making this incident highly unusual.What initially drew me to the property was the potential for high rent and strong cash flow.

Because I need cashflow proceeds to start being withdrawn in 2 years and not today, I'm looking for how I can build up the empire with a larger portfolio with continued investments beyond the initial $250k now.
