Sounds like there were some lean years but your persistence has paid off big time in terms of appreciation on both rents and home value.

Sounds like a great deal overall, congrats Ghita! 

We had advice from real estate agents, contractors, friends and lawyers from other regions.

Testing the entire BRRRR process to see if it's the right strategy for me long-term.building equity through rehab and build out will be best achieved with a lower priced cash purchase---typically wholesale. or word of mouth. depends on the region though. lots of ways to hunt for good BRRRR candidates, but hunting on the MLS typically wont get you low enough prices to make sense....My brother-in-law, who owns a landscaping company in Lee’s Summit, works with a lot of local builders and has been a huge help...This sounds like a great resource for finding subs that will do the work for you independently. most subs can do other types of work as well.If you’ve worked with trustworthy contractors or subcontractors in the Jackson County/MO area (especially those familiar with investment properties), I’d love your recommendations.

I am considering purchasing empty lots priced roughly $10-15K below market value.My plan is to offer owner financing for the land.These lots have water, drainage, and electric connections available, and mobile homes are permitted.The area is experiencing significant development, with the lots surrounded by new single-family homes.I would really appreciate any advice, feedback, or suggestions.Thank you

Any advice on how to find reliable gap funding sources or make it work within your deal structures would be greatly appreciated!

The newest outdoor is still advertising 1st month free as they haven't filled up, and I spoke with the climate controlled owner/builder yesterday (he's a pretty big REI in the area), and he made it sound like he hadn't leased a single climate controlled unit since they opened a few weeks ago.I recently purchased a 140x45 warehouse with low ceilings and had debated doing self storage, but my market seems very saturated.

So it probably makes sense to send targeted letters to people who you're most interested in connecting with.Solid advice, thank you.

Readers should seek professional advice.

My advice would be to shop for a PMC as an employer the same way you would if you were a landlord.
