Just wondering, if buying a lot and building a duplex, triplex, or quad plex is a good option in today's market?

If you are trying to do this in Newark, you need to know the market of that particular set of blocks so you don't overdevelop for the farm area.

Are you looking in other markets outside of NY? 

As I settle into the new year with my game plan Im curious to know what Margins investors are looking to receive in this market.

It's a good time to review markets, but living in China there are a lot of other closer, international markets that could be options as well.

So, maybe do 30-50% down, for better cashflow and make sure you have reserves for mortgage payments in case there's a rental market dip in the future.DM us if you have any more questions:)

If an investor has the time, knowledge, capital and experience to be an active property investor then there are a number of strategies , that, depending on the economic market can be used to accelerate wealth building.  

Cash flow is crucial, especially if you depend on it for your monthly income.Selling the property for $170k, which is above its market value of $120k, might seem like a good deal initially.

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?
