If you're open to exploring new markets, this could be a great way to pick up properties for cheap and build cash flow with a much smaller upfront investment.

I would like to build several (2 - 6) "shipping container" type homes for either short, mid or long term rental.

My wife and I are in Stillwater and have house hacked for a number of years as well as flipped and own mixed use buildings in Western Wi.

Thank you very muchBeau,In my opinion the math and the numbers on deals don't lie and are also a great way to build a plan.

I am just starting to focus on building our portfolio and growing it hopefully successfully the next 7 years. appreciate the insight, Scott. 

An example might be a commercial tenant with 50% of the space in a building sends an after-letter notice that it now plans to vacate at the end of its lease term in 6 months.

I looked into a program that is called the rei accelerator and they said they will guarantee me a deal of a 60+ unit apartment building in the next 4 months and i will get to a closing table and generate $20,000 a month off my first deal with working with them.

Build your team of players who are already performing the way you want to.

@Jacob HavlovickCongrats on purchasing your first duplex and starting your house-hacking journey—this is a huge step toward building wealth!

I have seen people buy non-existant properties, bottom of lake (literally underwater), slivers of land too narrow or small to do anything, Army bombing range, expired leases, cell tower now removed, property with 30 year lease and prepaid rent for 30 years, condemned buildings, toxic waste sites, land under railroad tracks, cliffs, landlocked property, wetlands, flood zone, unbuildable property, endangered species habitat, ....I have three rules for buying at Tax Sale:1.
