Then when you lose money and decide to sell - there they are sharing in your pity and making another commission.

Interesting, thanks for sharing!

(And hopefully, you'll share it here so we can all continue to learn.) 

Not alot of confidence in any existing rentals as consistent indciators but I feel like so many homes are 1/2 rentals and don't tell the whole story.Anyone have any insight into the Cashiers/Highlands/Sapphire/Lake Toxaway markets to share? 

Using this method, we will have our home paid off in about 2 more years AND will have a massive HELOC we can use to scale even more. wht are you going to do after the mortgage is paid-off ?

Instead, start by sharing why you’re interested and ask questions to understand the seller’s motivation like, ‘Why do you think it hasn’t sold yet?’

I recently had a conversation with a Russian-speaking realtor from Ohio and wanted to share some insights:Competition among investors is very strong.

Sharing understandings and rules on guests, cleanliness, chores, pets, drinking, drugs, boundaries, house identity, conflict resolution, communication platforms, etc.

I am also a huge believer that with massive affordability issues in cities people will start to migrate to smaller towns that they can afford.

Happy to share some contacts with you.
