Buy/Hold is going to tie up your cash for a long period of time as to where flipping presents a fair amount of risk but offers a much faster return.  

When the tied gets low, investors rush in.

Getting Dick and Jane to sell you their house privately, let alone let you tie it up to try and sell it at a mark-up, can be quite a challenge here.In most jurisdictions in the country if you are not taking possession of the property (i.e. owning it), you would be brokering without a licence which can get you into trouble.

It's the least you can do after tying up the property for a month (45 days seems excessive, even for a wholesaler...my inspection period is 15 days).Best thing you can do is make sure the deals you get are actually deals, and you shouldn't have a problem finding buyers (or closing yourself if need be).

This is also a good way to get the money away from being tied up with the seller and buyer mutual agreement on releasing money since it is not "due" to either of them.

My ultimate goal is to help each other build a stronger network.

Also wanted to mention for those looking to become first time homeowners consider this strategy tied in with a househack. 

Most people that I’ve had the opportunity to do business with use the percent of property value because it ties directly to the cost to repair the physical asset, whereas rental income can vary significantly in relation to the cost of repairing the property.

My fear is that I'll have all of my money tied up in this BRR while I wait for two years to pass by to establish a steady pay history.

To this point, he has bought many, many houses , apartments and even several strip malls by getting them tied up in lease with options.
