As I see it, the only ways that real estate pays you well in the first 3-5 years is low to no leverage or a strategy that requires more work (short term rental, mid term rental, rent by the room, etc.).  

I had just mastered the original deal analysis and was getting comfortable analyzing deals.  

I would like Ca population to decrease over the next 10 years.  

google "all inclusive Deed of Trust" fantastic CA document we used all the way back in the early 80s If I'm not mistaken though a wrap would require the 2nd buyer to also agree to financing terms; which would be the same as me (the 1st buyer). 

That sure is a pretty looking bridge, I hope the local people find it to be a very useful thing.

You ate up all the inventory!

Also being able to write down/document goals I set earlier and see if they are being hit.

Another would be you are building other units next door/nearby and you can chalk this build up to the "learning curve".I didn't see a CFO on GLH or GLC's website, but I'm sure you have someone doing this type of financial analysis for your developments?

I am of the opinion that you'd be better served using that money toward the down payment on a property.

Am I able to do a seller's finance for the remainder 25% with the owner and then do a balloon payment at the end of my term with both the seller and the harmony lender when I flip the property.
