That’s why I shifted my focus to the Midwest, where industries are growing and property prices are still affordable.

In fact, during my short stint as an aspiring BRRRR investor, I successfully secured a pre-approval for a private money loan based on my net worth.Now that I’ve shifted to land investing, I’m wondering: Do private or hard money lenders exist specifically for land flips?

The real estate market is constantly shifting, and most coaching programs are outdated.

But if the lease terms are murky, if renewal conditions aren’t guarenteed, or if the airport authority could dramatically shift the deal down the line, then you should be asking for a discount..or at least some protective clauses in the contract.I’m curious... if you were to step into this kind of leasehold now, how do you think you’d explain the upside to your future buyers or partners when you eventually decide to exit?

The boss I was working for when  I read RDPD was a big factor in shifting my thinking from "supplement my retirement" to "get me the heck out of here!" 

Hi @Jen HoangI came across this post while researching how investors are navigating 1031 exchanges today, and I think your questions are still super relevant.. especially given how much the real estate market has shifted over the past year.

The problem is that the market landscape has fundamentally shifted.

. —- Again I’m not saying you have to do these things; it all depends what type of investor you are and what you are looking for however it is important to understand that if you shift the responsibility of either identifying the invest property or managing or any other aspect there WILL be a trade off — in this case the turnkey company has delivered on your goal of 8-9% ROI (projected... so TBC) and in return you have traded some of the other benefits of investing in RE for the convenience of not having to do much more than to look over the properties they have sent you and funding it from the comfort of your home, office, etc. ... again if this is the goal then you are on point but if the goal is to also partake in ALL of the other benefits of RE then you should understand that and not be surprised that it’s not a ‘stellar’ investment that checks all the boxes.

LA to AR. that is a big culture shift.

In my little part of the world, we call that "blame shifting".
