The investor loss incident being mentioned (flamingo las Vegas) is an event that has occurred in Q3 2020.

again, no dog in this fight, but as someone who runs a debt fund I am pretty sure I can piece together what occurred based on reading SEC filings and the above. 

The way you present things I can see this occurring eventually.  

However, given the way interest rates have gone, I wonder if it is still viable to do the BRRRR in 2025 on homes purchased in 2020, or 2022, given that you are probably giving up favorable interest rates when you do your refinance for current rates.Is the BRRRR more feasible when your refinance occurs at a similar interest rate as the rate at which you purchased the property?

There is not an indication of underground plumbing inspection occurring in the energovweb portal.Alt seawall permit has expired and has the following hold in the portal: "Hold has been added by the IAA to ensure the expired permit cannot have any further work conducted until the expiration is extended."

Rents/Divs go up with inflation, and capital appreciation occurs at an unpredictable rate.Yes, you’re giving up returns compared to direct RE ownership, but you’re gaining piece of mind.You could try note investing too.

California does not have a law requiring deposits to be held separately (neither did Alabama when i had Alabama properties) and it seems like a significant hassle to address a virtually never occurring event (not having money to return deposit to the tenant). 

And it occurred to me that by purchasing this property I'll be increasing my monthly cashflow 25% going from 400/mo to 500/moOf course I'm not considering this in a vacuum, I have other factors to consider like appreciation, principle pay down, etc.

Since this occurred, we've taken great measures firm and department wide to help smooth this process out and provide a better client experience.I appreciate you being honest, and will be reaching out to help clarify how we could have done better and to help remedy the situation.

G'Day Luka,I'm not a fan of out of state BRRRR.It's hard enough for us on the ground to get rehabs done on time and on budget and I don't even want to think how difficult, expensive and time consuming it would be for out of state investors.And then include a high LTV and that can be a portfolio killer IMO.Hat's off to you mate for grabbing the bull and jumping in.You live, you make mistakes, you learn and you grow.Such is life.Building a large portfolio is an absolute must when investing in sub $100,000 properties in Ohio.I "killed" my business by not wanting to sell to investors that are using leverage.Our sales volume could increase by 70-80% but it is what it is.I just don't believe in it or want the hassle associated with it lolReason is mostly two fold:1) Not in the mood to deal with lenders for 2 months and hope the deal will go through.2) I don't believe that investors should use high LTV when building the foundation of their portfolio.My advice to you:1) Pay them off as quickly as you can.2) Build a larger portfolio.The investors that $#@% the most on my name are the ones that buy 1 or 2 properties and expect miracles.As you said, 1 furnace goes out or a sewer line needs repaired and bye bye cashflow for 2 years.We get blamed although we can't predict to fix certain things and there are just many unknowns with all investments.Our happiest investors are the ones that own 6-7 or even 10+ properties and all with cash and no leverage.They aren't worried about turns or tenant issues that occur on 1 or 2 properties as it's just the nature of the beast.Returns vary but across the board over the last 10 years I have seen 6-10% net ROI's year after year.Building a large portfolio is a must to minimize risk and to get the best possible long term ROI.Thanks
