Quote from @Barrington Smith: Contractors that give free estimate in the Fort Lauderdale areaHey @Barrington Smith that’s going to be a somewhat tough task, and it comes back to basic principles of those who crush fields:-the guy who does great work often values his time a lot and won’t give a free estimate-the guy who is hurting for work often will.  

There are so many asset classes out there and your going to get shiny object syndrome.

And at no fault of their own – cashflow is what they were SOLD on.Here's what I want you to understand about “buy and hold” residential real estate:Let’s use a single family home with a property value of $300,000Let’s use an initial loan amount of $240,000Let’s use an interest rate of 7.25%And I’m going to give you $150 of cash flow per monthUse a 5% appreciation amount for your propertyLet’s see what happens after 5 years:After 5 years…$150 of cash flow per month = $9,000Your mortgage has been paid down to $227,000 = $13,000Your property is now worth $382,000 = $82,000So that’s $9,000 of cash flow, $13,000 of principle buy down, and $82,000 of appreciation.

Hire a professional that does this for a living (that doesn't also sell remediation) to do an objective test.

To play into this matter, the answer is due to the free market and the principle of supply and demand (Carlos' point).

You may create a profitable real estate portfolio and work toward eventually managing your own syndicate by making thoughtful decisions and remaining committed to your objectives.

yes the program is $4800. it is a simple system in that the object is volume of offers on MLS properties with an organizational scheme to keep the operation moving and scalable.$5k may or may not be a lot of money.

My professional objective is to get into management.  

I am not aware if there's such community in miami alread.My idea is to create a group of people with the same objectives, where we can share our experiences, learn from others, help each other grow or start in this journey.

Downside is HOA fees can increase at anytime or rules put in place you might object to or that don't fit your strategy.
