The opposite way of this plan is to get to slow-grow neighborhoods and buy 3-5-8 SFH in cash or 50% hard money in areas like Macon, GA, or Savannah GA, and do BRRRR as well and diversify with 50% long-term rentals and 50% short-term rentals But really, the main idea is to make a smarter move with fewer movements along the way and get it safe as well. 

Remember now....Fast solutions have slow problems!

If so, this property is going to be very slow to provide decent cash flow  - at that price, $125k, it shows poor historical appreciation.  

My property manager advised due to decreased university enrollment these homes are slow to rent over the last few years.  

Slow and steady wins the race mate.Too many guru's and marketing companies pumping leverage to rookies because they make more money, the more somebody buys.Being patient and using all cash to begin is always safer in the long run.Build the foundation of your portfolio with cash and make it strong.After a few years, look at using leverage for faster growth.And only after you have experienced the true income and expenses of your portfolio and not just paper figures.Cash is KingCashflow is QueenLeverage is the Peasant Just my opinion 🙏

It starts slow but it accelerates!

Appreciation has slowed in the last couple of years.

Due to item 1, adding an ADU can require years to start achieving any return (once the accumulated cash flow recovers the initial negative position).4) Adding an ADU is a slow process.
