In June 2024, we completed installation of a heated and chilled pool.

I work with investors in Huntsville, and there are big things heating up here, as well.

My partners and I (3 of us) are based in Miami FL (not the easiest market at the moment) we are all realtors / brokers and investors, each have 20+ years of experience down here, have done multiple ground up single Family and duplex builds and currently have a portfolio of single fam and duplex properties.

First, let me say I’m not a lender or mortgage professional—I’m a real estate broker associate based in Miami, Florida.

As I’m sure you know, Las Vegas is SUPER cheap compared to most of California, Miami, or NYC.

If the home is 100 yrs old, I'm assuming it's a definite gut which is going to require new plumbing, electrical, heating, cosmetics.I spent about $140K reno on my multi family in the heights on NY ave and there were massive problems with it but it was a gut to 3 units & adding 2 bathrooms, 3 brand new kitchens 4 bathroom reno in total, all new flooring, sheetrock , insulation, framing, doors, electrical, plumbing, paint, parts of roof etc.

@Blake KirbyHere's an excerpt from the Redfin article you referenced:"The metro area with the highest risk of a real estate dip during a recession is Riverside, California, with an overall score of 72.8 percent, followed by Phoenix (69.8%) and Miami (69.5%).

Known for its South Florida locations, this will be the first Havana 1957 beyond Miami.

We are only very moderately leveraged, but I am in no rush to change that and rather use the cash flow to re-invest either into upgrades (we are doing a ton of driveways this year) or more RE.I don't think there is a right or wrong way, like you said there are many different ways, I just find myself adjusting every year a bit more in that direction. most condos historically are not great appreciation plays. its a place to live and enjoy.. unless said condo was bought in Miami in 2008 to 2010 :)No $#@% mate.And Chicago has been a disaster for many years now.I pinged Bri about it a while ago and she said "Good luck" hahaI guess it's more a trophy property than anything else during my "ego" pumping days.A bit older, balder and smarter nowadays I guess.Less is more mate lol
