Right now I'm focusing on building up rentals in the states & doing some flips to raise more capital.

My house is finally closing after flipping it and suddenly I have a lot of time on my hands haha. 

The assignment fees then enabled me to roll into other strategies, buy and hold, fix and flip.  

Your goal of buy and hold and flipping so soon seems very difficult, especially with a young child (our first is due in January).  

So I’m pretty close to you, once I pull some cash I have sitting in a flip that will probably turn into a brrr I’ll be about 70/30 stocks, I really don’t mind buying property provided I think for some subjective reason that area is undervalued/will outperform the market, but to me the stock market has a few advantages, 1. it is much easier obviously/more liquid. 2.

I am potentially interested in doing a fix and flip with 100% OPM.

My company specializes in higher-end flips in the Denver market, and we are looking to get into multifamily nationwide! 

Both LTRs and flips are great strategies.

For instance, you cannot deduct labor on an unfinished flip until it is sold.

I had the same lessons learned from BRRRR's and flips I've done in the past: they almost always go over time and over budget!
