Do I start reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad" which seems to be a popular book in this business?

Hi @Roberto Ramirez,Building to rent in this area is a very popular strategy right now with how heavy the rental demand is, and the relatively high return that you can see through this model.

And 2) It is like saying...Everyone eats food, so food has huge competition, so it is better to start eating rocks!

I know the BRRR was very popular however trying to teach that to those with zero or limited experience was a train wreck waiting to happen.. its all great in theory and completely different in real life.. its by far the hardest and riskiest thing BRRR remotely that an investor can take on.. full stop..

I guess it is not that popular lol. 

The 30-year fixed portfolio loan with an intro 10-year IO period has been popular for clients of ours!

Knowns: ground will be rock, no overhangs, typical 8ft fence with one automatic gate with key pad entry for both entry and exit, lighting and video surveillance. 

I know its popular, but I work in a gray building (inside and out) and not one soul there likes it. 

My girlfriend and I are interested in buying into the upper Michigan STR markets (Traverse City, Charlevoix, Petoskey, Bay Harbor, etc), hoping we can take advantage of the hot vacation rental market up there in the summers and the popular ski slopes for the winters. 

Dirt road wont cut it.. you will need at the very least gravel and depending on soil type you may need to put down big rock first like 3 inch then build a base of 1 inch minus on top of it so you dont sink.
