Educate yourself on investment fundamentals and understand lender criteria, such as minimum loan amounts and property requirements.

Looking for a great balance of cash flow and appreciation in a growing market with solid fundamentals?

I have this theory that basically the stock market can grow faster than the fundamentals more so than housing, reason being when people put money into their 401k or whatever they are just throwing money in, not looking at p/e or whatever, the stock market is in part just an index of Americans excess savings plus it’s a unstated policy of the government that stocks go up, where as housing people are obviously very very aware of how much thier monthly payments is/ how much rent is, plus it seems that is actually a push to lower housing prices at least relative to inflation.

@Randy AchiTo start flipping houses, learn fundamentals through books, podcasts, and online courses, build a network, start small, and practice repairs.

How can they not get loan with good fundamentals?

Real estate is going to be more rate and supply driven, than election driven.Equities will be election spurred(in the short term) but fundamentally earnings driven in the near term.

And once you convert it into your primary residence it is no longer eligible for a 1031 exchange. 

The other advice is to pick the the market that has the best fundamentals.

If you would like a free copy of this white paper, please DM me.Below are some of the results of our study:Short-term rentals and mid-term rentals are fundamentally different.

Someone I know bought a ranch to use as a short term rental property in 2021 for $1.7 million.Engineers did a virtual site visit, they were able to assign a value of $347,000 to either 5-7-15 year assets that were eligible for depreciation.In 2021, the bonus depreciation amount that you could take was 100%.This means that the owner could immediately deduct the full amount of eligible property in the year it was placed in service, rather than depreciating it over time.With that in mind, he took the full $347K deduction in his FIRST YEAR of ownership to offset taxable income from rentals.This was roughly ~20% of his purchase price.It was a big win for him.In 2024, the bonus depreciation rate is 60% so the calculation would be different.That said, you can still save and defer a ton.
