Yair Zarmon Starting out with $250K. What would you do?
27 April 2024 | 15 replies
:) G'Day Zair,Just commented the same to another fellow looking to do something similar to what you are.I think that BRRRR from out of state is very risky business.If I was you, I'd continue immersing myself in everything and anything real estate related.Come back home to the US and start in your local market.Using leverage should only be reserved once you already know what you are doing and you have experienced the income/expenses over a few year period.I've always believe that "Cash is King, Cashflow is Queen and Finance is the Peasant" lolIn your local market or a market of your choosing you can buy, fix and flip or buy, fix and refinance.But I suggest you buy, fix and flip until you have enough cash reserves to buy, fix and hold without it affecting your cash position for future deals.Build a strong foundation without leverage and only then start looking to refinance or finance.30-50% of your portfolio should be un-leveraged.It's a slow process but all good things take time.Just my opinion and wishing you much success
