It is risk free profit every month. 

A challenge we’re all facing is balancing profitability with the higher cost of borrowing.What type of loan programs are you offering right now, and how flexible are you with structuring deals that involve short-term flips or long-term buy-and-hold strategies?

It would be ideal to start here for a hands on approach, but honestly, if the deal is good, I'd take it in any profitable market.

I will say it is equivalent to a profit and loss report, so I would think it would be sufficient for that purpose along with some other reports I'm sure they will need.

Flipping during a bear market or high-inflation period can present some unique challenges, but it’s still possible to profit if you approach it carefully.

Yes In Gods BackYard (YIGBY) is an incentive program many states offer that allows churches and other religious non-profits to develop low-income housing on their land with speed and cost incentives.

Try to see the big picture when getting started - maybe seeking private / hard money to get in to the deals where there is more profit potential could benefit you.

I have a couple buddies in San Francisco who I've been talking to about potentially co-buying a place in Tahoe and I am wondering if anyone has advice on how best to make a meaningful case for sharing in the costs/ownership/use/profit/tax adv/etc.Curious if anyone has firsthand experience?

I’ve had investors that initially bought SFRs in CA and accumulated about $400k - then sold the properties and now are actively buying fixers, small homes and value add properties where they use the $300k to purchase and improve and make between $200k to $300k per year in gross profits when selling a renovated or improved property.
