Materials have increased more than 20% in the last 5-8 years.

I've done these for 5 years now and the fund gets audited every time - knock on wood the outcomes continue to be favorable.

Going on the first face to face with a seller in years, even after getting 2 deals to the table, this one was tough.Stating the obvious, there is no replacing "the number" but I literally didn't have it in me to say it at that moment.

I have two long-term tenants in the duplex—one for 5 years and the other for 7.

Hi, I would love to hear what everyone's favorite project management software has been in the last year? 

I have a good credit score (791 based solely on credit cards) make almost $200,000 per year, and have very healthy investment and retirement accounts in America.

I have wholesaled, fix and flip and I have a duplex that I have owned for 5 years. 

You would need an extremely high grossing property under market value on a something like a 5 year lease to profit, and you probably will not profit after startup costs until Year 2 or 3.Do not even think of trying it with 1/2 bedroom apartments or condos nor 2/3 bedroom homes. 

If I believe I can generate enough profit this year and navigate any potential inspections next year, I’d be comfortable moving forward—using the income earned to cover any necessary upgrades.An alternative exit strategy is to document the financial performance and sell the property as-is, highlighting its strong short-term rental income.Think through your next five moves, from best to worst-case scenarios, and make a decision that aligns with your goals. 

What is interesting is our held for sale are the longer term notes as we do not plan to hold them for 10+ years.
