I would love to continue to do this, but I want to mitigate my risk going forward due to uncertainty in the markets (F Trump).What I have in mind is gathering 1M in total cash (I can fund 25%) to do another project home/multi-unit and I could run everything from start to finish.

There are other factors that come into play also during a wind mitigation survey - age of roof, shape of the roof, how the roof was framed, nails used etc.3.

I'm looking for someone who might be able to consult with me to help mitigate or navigate the zoning / code laws in this specific area. 

Any thoughts on ways to mitigate this interest rate risk? 

Barring a nationwide plunge like in 2009, diversification across markets is a good risk-mitigation toolIf you are looking for a more passive investment, going the Turnkey route on an OOS property sort of forces you to actually be pretty passive.

Many of the above over pay and have a long time-frame... to "mitigate the risk" I guess there are many ways to skin the cast....Im using leverage and in it for the cash-flow and forced appreciation, not land banking and hoping. 

It's only good business to do this as a way to mitigate your risks and put your policy in secondary positions to the renters policy for liability caused by them?

It's those maniacs that buy homes cash via quit claim deed off of craigslist that really get screwed.Make sure your property manager is a licensed real estate brokerage.Understand you can not eliminate all risk, only mitigate it.

@Teren Cooley  I am doing some background research and analysis on the wholesaling business model and a possible alternative that can mitigate some of the legal issues. 

This mitigates in my mind some of the down-side of the CFD's
