How do you see the cash flow issue evolving in your market? 

My basic assumption is I would be trading a certain level of cash flow for increased appreciation over a period of 10 years.

Short-term rentals are great when cash flow is strong, but with profit margins shrinking, switching to a long-term rental could add some stability.

I also have two buy-and-hold rental properties and am passionate about exploring unique financing opportunities.Recently, I used a VA loan assumption to purchase an investment property at a 3.3% interest rate, which was instantly cash flow positive. 

if you can be hands-on: no PM, a lot of DIY, etc. you can absolutely cash flow. 

Can have a huge impact on cash flow for borrower.  

But when the two elevators went down and we realized we were barely able to make DSCR and weren’t cash flowing enough to cover long term major maintenance and cap ex, we had to pivot into Plan B.in regard to renovating in a partially occupied building, it’s a nightmare.  

You need to look at return on equity, how much cash flow can be generated putting your equity to work vs the cash flow this property will produce.

Good cash flow.  

Holding onto it for cash flow for now.
