Revisiting this post, I would strongly recommend any service-based business where you can buy in at a low EBITDA multiple.

Though we haven’t closed our first deal yet, we’re ready to jump and pull the rip cord as soon as our coach gives the green light!

I couldn't find any threads on BP that mention him in a negative light, is he another charlatan?

I gutted it and added new drywall, new light fixtures, new bathrooms, new paint, new kitchen, new furniture and new flooring and new windows.

A lot split with 3 year commitment to OO will be a slow scale, but for someone starting out it s low risk with solid expectation of return.  

Starting rent-free is a smart move—it’ll maximize cash flow but high purchase price and a low down payment make it challenging.

I would like to install all wood cabinets as this house will hopefully sell in the low $200K's after renovation. 

I’m considering purchasing five units in an eight-unit light industrial property structured as a condominium.

Also AirBNB stocking fees, maintenance, cap ex.But at the same token know that the principal portion of your mortgage payment is actually not a true expense so there is that benefit to doing all of this even if you are light on the cash flow or break even.  

I dont believe there is any kind of HOA or ruling organization for these group of houses but it has me concerned that if one day they all decide they want to repave the driveway or add lighting or something along those lines, they would try and make everyone chip in and pay their fair share.
