I’m ready to scale and begin my own portfolio of buy and holds using the BRRRR strategy.

Year 3 we achieved a 10% rent increase across the portfolio, but have incurred high turnover and vacancy costs.

And when a rising tide is lifting all boats, groups that amplified their results by using risky high leverage could score some massive returns until the music stopped, then will subsequently struggle to keep the rest of their portfolio out of foreclosure.

@Cameron Chambers I’m from Ottawa, my portfolio is there, but I live in the U.S.

Anyone interested in a 50/50 partnership to grow the portfolio?

•Goals: My short-term focus is to optimize my property management strategies and potentially grow my portfolio.

Also having a higher proportion of revenue generated through the residential component of the building does make financing easier. (3) The exception to the 80% rule I abide by is when the commercial space is leased to a credit tenant with a proven & sustainable business  or where the space presents the opportunity to attract a neighborhood amenity F&B operator (this is most beneficial in instances where you have a larger localized portfolio where these commercial tenants can positively impact the value of your overall residential portfolio).

A BRRRR strategy or house hacking with a duplex can maximize your returns.Consider leveraging financing to acquire multiple properties, which spreads risk and scales your portfolio faster.

Hi Burton,It sounds like you're in a great position with a strong portfolio.

I’m motivated to bring the same dedication to real estate.I’d love to connect with others who started small and scaled their portfolios or anyone experienced in land flipping, wholesaling, or creative financing strategies.
