Hello, everyone.My name is Hild R. and I'm new on Real Estate business, I used to run a small Painting LLC business with a HIC LICENSE for few years but based on personal circumstances I have to pause.

Looks like you’re just covering your bases with generic responses to us though. 

.: I am trying to learn and understand... someone told me that its not just size of the home or level of the flip that determines profit, and that in some markets, what is considered a typical profit is 300k based on the 70% ARV formula.

If you are thinking about a new purchase with a heloc vs a current 30 year fixed rate, this could be a good alternative.Basically, helocs are billed based on the average daily balance of the account.

Base the amount of podcast I watched, I know it's very possible but with limited finance, it seems out of my reach.

The appeal, in my experinence, is a steady local base plus some vacationers passing through.I’ve got a freind who scooped up a place near the Ozarks and found that while huge cash flow was harder to come by, the consistent occupancy gave them fewer headaches over time.

I'm based on the west side of the Twin Cities and am investing on MN's North Shore (Duluth, Two Harbors, Grand Marais) The house were under contract for is a long-term duplex. 

I have warned about them for some time based on my experience with them. 

That aside, If it were me I'd get a professional estimate of what repairs would cost, and make the decision to keep or sell based on that. 

Have you ever seen rents actually go lower (I'd assume this would only happen if occupancy dropped significantly, but that seems like something that could happen in a recession).Also a BAM specific question/concern - from what I understand they are based in Indiana, and I see in their current open offering one of the properties is in Indiana (great) but I'm wondering why the other property is in Arkansas?
