As we’re beginning to get a grasp on the scale of the challenges ahead we wanted to highlight a few areas of note and concern that is already influencing the local and national real estate market.

That’s how I scaled up to 28 SFR without using hardly any of my own money to get the deals.

My goal for next year is scale and acquire at least 5 more properties (preferably multifamily).

Then continue to scale - don't try and retire off one deal

The way I finally found success was through repetition and then building systems as you repeat to help you scale...

As you grow, use 1031 exchanges to defer taxes and scale your portfolio.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Quote from @Sergio P Ramos: @JD Martin i have not done a development project of this scale.

Nobody watches your money like you do, you'll learn how to manage, so you can manage a manager later and you'll save precious early-years cash flow, which allows you to scale faster, especially in the first 5 years.

You will want enough return for the deal to support itself or you won't be able to scale well.

Partnering with others can help you scale your business and access greater resources.
