While this is a great and highly motivating goal, most people are either clueless or incorrect in their belief as to what is required to obtain this “lifestyle”.Understanding of the “how to” get there is further obscured by the misleading, and often patently false “pathways” sold by real estate educational MARKETING companies as workshops, upsold to association memberships, upsold to mentorships.

We are Canadian in invest in the US.We work in the Detroit market where we have a great team on the ground and are finding exceptional deals.

There are other ways to be successful besides EMD as well.

Quote from @Kaleb Johnson: The issue is that you cant cold call people in New York  You cant cold call but you can definitely do SMS marketing and find your ideal sellers for wholesaling.

BP Rookie podcast has a pretty good content on Airbnb, however mostly success stories.

I am also willing to do vacation rentals, wholesaling, BRRR, fixer-up properties, off-market deals, fix & flips, etc...

The buyers sittings on tons of cash waiting for market to change ( yield buyers ).

If so, I would appreciate hearing your thoughts and experiences regarding the local market, investment opportunities, and overall outlook for the area

@Ellis Moyewe really don't know a lot about this situation since there aren't many details in your post... but i don't think this makes any sense for anyone involved here...if it's a flip that's not selling, refinancing may not solve your problem and allow you to pay back the HML in fulland typically a sub to buyer wants a low interest rate... and if you refinance now you won't be getting a low interest rate, you'll just be getting whatever the market offers.and finally.... the vast majority of loans are NOT assumable. 

Unless you are finding off-market opportunities direct to seller, I can't imagine the deals working on BRRRR.
