Demonstrate value in your partnerships and what you want to achieve.

I'm from Vancouver (the one in your state) so don't know firsthand but will ask them and get back to you if they can point me in a good direction.

Every strategy will have pros and cons but it really just all depends on what you are trying to achieve with your investing. 

However if I do a BRRRR I can achieve infinite return by extracting all of my investment.

That's a great goal to have and very achievable.

But, a funny thing happened on our way to the Forum: we were able to learn first hand how to manage properties, deal with renters (including the House from Hell and the Renters from Hell on our 3rd property), what to look for in deals, etc. 

The apartment complex (large unit counts with own maintenance staff) cannot even achieve that maintenance/cap ex.   

I feel this target can be achieved given recent cap rates sold in the area, and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of renovations combined done by me the landlord (1 unit+exterior), and my amazing tenants who did gut renovations of their units.The general rule of thumb is to use 3 lenders for cash out refinance right?

With careful planning and strategic decisions, real estate can indeed be a powerful vehicle for creating a legacy and achieving financial independence.

However, there's nothing like getting firsthand advice from experienced investors, so I'm reaching out to you all!
