Leverage your W-2 income for better loan terms, explore private/hard money for off-market deals, and network with investors to expand your deal flow.Good luck!

Vacancies can hit hard in the summer if you don’t lock in year-round tenants, and SUNY towns can be seasonal compared to broader rental markets.

It is hard to pin down specifically, but that seems to have been a factor in a few of the ARV-Appraisals that I've seen and has impacted the refinancing process.Otherwise, it has been a great market for my clients, great cash flows and repeatability which has really helped as they have scaled.

Purchase price: $77,000 Sale price: $85,000 Contributors: Peter Vekselman Partner Driven teamed up with Jamari Sprueil to secure this off-market deal in Decatur for $77,000.

We did this because initially we were just going to build/sell, but I would rather hold on to it.

With a HELOC being around 9% I'd probably be paying more in interest than the money would make in the stock market.

I work specifically with investors and market for run-down properties that I am able to offer to investors I work with exclusively, on top of the properties that are available on the MLS.

I do not subscribe to the idea that you should expect negative cashflow UNLESS you want a specific property in a specific market that is more or less a second home situation. 

I have a small team but work 3 different markets.

Hi, I was wondering if there's any good reliable places to market tenant in place + management in place properties.
