First off, huge props to your dad for building that real estate portfolio over the years 👏🏽 Given the numbers you shared (3.4% fixed mortgage is chef’s kiss), it sounds like a solid property with a lot of upside, especially since you already know the ins and outs and can add value by converting to 3-bed units.

Hi Everyone,I'm a Chef by profession looking to purchase my first real estate investment property in 2025. 

@Ariel HernandezSo many chefs in the kitchen.

Some CAN cook as good as a Chef.

Think about beach equipment rentals, mom and pop restaurants, maybe a mobile chef or masseuse, etc.

Uniqueness, location, accessibility and of course excellent, and I mean excellent customer service.We have a 2-3 truly 5-star vacation-esque STRs where we work locally with chauffeur services, restaurants for catering, chefs for on demand meals, etc., dog walkers for their pets-- plenty of services-- that the property managers can coordinate a full service weekend experience for a wealthy elderly couple from New York.

And it's actually going to make us MORE money with WAY less work and headache 🙏 (I mean we'll still have tenants so its not without headache).I also have 2 littles, whom I homeschool, were just finishing up renovating a school bus, and started a couple businesses, while traveling the country (hippie scientist gone green real estate investor 🤓, still hippie 🌈✌️🚌, with hottie chef husband 👨‍🍳).

Hey mate,Welcome to the BP forum.You and @Jackelyn Lee are smarty pants heheI quit school at 14 and I'm a two finger pecker typer 🤓My team laughs at me for looking like a Teppanyaki chef throwing rice at someone when I type.Biggest message for you is to always keep the dream alive and to keep pushing forward.There are many unsophisticated folks out there like myself and I'll be cliche and say "if I can do it, anyone can" hehe.What one lacks in talent, has to make up with effort.I've only known one way and that is to put my head through the wall.Many others will just open the door and get to the other side lol.Not me tho ehhhYep, neck is always sore but we keep pushing forward...Wishing you much success with your real estate endeavors 🙏
