That is how you scale in multifamily investing, figure out ways to build forced appreciation and suck that out to buy more properties.

Multi-family homes provide more cash flow, risk reduction, and economies of scale, but they need more capital and may have higher turnover.

So . . we are clearly talking different scales here. 

Hey @Eric KlineAwesome that you're working on such a large scale deal.

You need time to get your feet wet - and doing it on a small scale is WAY safer than getting into a 6 figure renovation.Flips are for one time cash, and rentals are for long term cash-flow.  

If you want to scale up and buy more faster putting less down is the best plan.

Nail holes need to be filled where tack strips where, but ripping the staples from the hardwood resulted in several rough spots that need to be sanded down.We have no experience with hardwood refinishing- what are our options to avoiding a full scale hardwood refinish?

To increase my capital for investing I have already scaled our 401K contributions back to 6% to take advantage of the company match and aren’t doing any more than that.

A class you will go full scale.

Got it @Brett Nissen What type areas are these properties in on and A-F scale?
