I know it's (pretty) late in the cycle but have made money cross-cycle before, although velocity drops a lot. 

CoC helps make more sense of this as if you have $1,000 invested in the deal to earn this return, you are sitting much prettier than if you have $50k invested to make the same $3,600/year  I personally love the CoC metric as it's highly correlated to my velocity of acquisitions. 

That is what makes a deal a winner or a loser.If you want fast velocity lease up then you DO NOT want to push top market rents the first year.

That says the velocity of homes sales has MORE than doubled. 

--> If your goal is to quit your job and scale up your business...at some point you have to 'go hard' and take a leap because then you're using the velocity of money to create more money. 

BRRRR seems like a great way to use velocity of money.

At payoff your cash flow has maxed out and you have increased your velocity of wealth creation.

Knowing a good small business broker can bring you all kinds of deals.There are tons of newbies here that want to dooptions and they usually will need money for the option price, another partnership possibility.Staying with one strategy to keep the velocity of your money moving can be a challenge, it usually takes an open mind, being receptive to all kinds of transactions and in the beginning, knowing a good attorney that can keep your money secured properly and identify the risks.

For example if their goal is 15,000 profit per flip for easy makeover type properties then their deal velocity will be higher versus wanting a few big pop properties a year making 40k to 50k at a time.

Scope - if you want to scale quickly, look for deals that have shorter timelines so you can create velocity with your money.
