The 38128 is slightly below the median and is in a decent area, but definitely an area on the more challenged end of the spectrum in Memphis. 

Definitely an option in PA, FL you may be limited to 75%.

As for hard money, it’s great for scaling quickly, but if you have the cash, using it can definitely save on interest and fees, boosting your profit.

I would definitely encourage to utilize all the resources that Bigger Pockets has to offer. 

@Tyler Jahnke definitely keep us updated!

But if you’re questioning whether your condo will keep appreciating the way you want, and you’re set on staying in real estate investing, a 1031 could definitely be worth exploring.

Id definitely allot yourself an extra couple weeks though for your calculations.

and it definitely has felt that way haha, I've been posting it EVERYWHERE.I was drawn to S8 for the slightly above/guaranteed rents and the very long term tenancy.

You should definitely buy a property and give/rent out rooms to the homeless and disadvantaged.

I am unsure if this lower occupancy is the result of increased interest rates or some other cause, but mission beach definitely has significantly less guests in the off season than in 2019.
