I can only speak to myself personally but I've continued to invest, knowing properties may not cash flow much but I've invested in value-add so focusing on appreciation.

There is opportunity all over.

I bring to the table my full expertise in project management, construction, and deal sourcing, along with the knowledge I’ve gained working tirelessly in this industry over the past 3 years.My vision is to dedicate the next 10-15 years to real estate development, growing projects that generate significant returns while delivering exceptional results.If you’re interested in learning more, I’d love to discuss how we can collaborate.

My goal, over the next five years, is to utilize real estate in lieu of my current hourly consulting income, by building a portfolio of rentals.  

Maybe just try finding the deal and sending it over to a larger wholesaler for a JV fee?

Removing it cost us an additional $5k over our estimate.  

Since companies have a limited lifespan (10–18 years on average), cities must attract new businesses to maintain job opportunities.Factors Companies Consider:Low Operating Costs: States with lower property taxes and insurance costs.Low Crime Rates: High-crime cities deter businesses and tenants alike.Natural Disaster Risks: Avoid areas prone to disasters, as recovery can take years, impacting your rental income.City Size and InfrastructureFocus on cities with metro populations over 1 million.

Then over the course of the first year or so, if you could raise the rents by a total of $1k/mo (they are currently $2k, $1k, and $1k), then you might be able to pull out about $60k-$80k in a cash out refi. 

Over the years, however, we’ve found that we end up coming down to Orlando quite a lot, especially in the last couple of years, and we end up staying in vacation rentals (Reunion, Championsgate, Storey Lake typically).I would love to simply pull equity from the current property but given that it’s a long term rental and we are Canadians, from what we understand it’s not an option for us.we love reunion but I feel that would probably not be the best for ROI.  

I hope you are doing well and sounds like you are an experience investor in this market - would love to maybe grab coffee sometime and hear about the experiences you have gain over that last 15 years!
