Depending on your method, I will use your 100k of cash to invest out of state, like Alabama, to buy two to three properties (leveraging the loan and cash flow) or purchase an Alabama house in all cash (higher cash flow).Keep on renting in the meantime.

It was like surfing a wave of opportunity right to the shores of prosperity.Here's one method that's helped me achieve success: I flaunt my wins, transactions, and triumphant stories on social media.

The property appraised at $25,000 over purchase by comparison method and around $60k over by cost method.

Quote from @Jennifer Fernéz: The best method is to make an offer and require the seller to remove the tenant so you don't have to deal with it after closing.If they won't do it, then you'll have to do it after you own the property.

Most likely the state where the property is located is where lawsuits would be brought if they are something for personal injury like a trip and fall or something of that nature because the “cause of action” arose in that state.

Transitioning into hard money lending is a natural step given your experience.

I have been successful having my insurance on my personal home AND my STRs lowered with this method. 

BRRRR is a method not really a business template (if such a thing exists for any business). 

Temperature control:  It's always naturally cooler downstairs, and in the heights of summer and winter, I just cannot get the temperature regulated for both me and my tenant to where we're both comfortable. 

The most efficient method  is to create one contract and then add/subtract properties that are either acquired or sold by this particular client through a contract addendum.
