Hi Burton,It sounds like you're in a great position with a strong portfolio.

I would love to see the numbers, normally they can be tweaked in a more positive way. 

Maybe not with positive cash flow, but overall is very doable.

I spend a lot of time listening to audiobooks, and a lot of those books are actually more geared towards the mind and being positive (you mentioned mans search for meaning, I just finished that).

I am located in Northern Utah and would love to invest locally, but it does not seem feasible for my strategy and financial position.

What do others use for prompting positive reviews or intercepting negative reviews?

I'm running BRRRR deals through my modeling sheet and none of them ever come with positive cash flow.

You can learn together, share positive and negative experiences and learn how to be more successful as an investor.

Certainly if you pay cash for your property and possibly if not likely if you use some source of financing mentioned above, you should be cash flow positive given the much lower costs in Mexico.

Also having a higher proportion of revenue generated through the residential component of the building does make financing easier. (3) The exception to the 80% rule I abide by is when the commercial space is leased to a credit tenant with a proven & sustainable business  or where the space presents the opportunity to attract a neighborhood amenity F&B operator (this is most beneficial in instances where you have a larger localized portfolio where these commercial tenants can positively impact the value of your overall residential portfolio).
