I have always imagined getting to the point where I could hold/ run a small community of mountain cabin rentals or a guest house, something along those lines.Thanks,Chad 

Sometimes a refi or HELOC can be an alternative if you want to hold onto the property.If I were in your shoes, I would start looking at a refi first and see if that would be the most beneficial choice. 

Hold on while I get my popcorn………..

This would allow you to sell a property you had purchased with the intent of holding for productive investment use. 

Quote from @Rolayne Taylor: We started with one buy and hold in 2019.

Very excited about how well they are doing.. they are not holding but I am helping them make 250 to 400k in cash a year or more by financing thier deals for them.

Turnkey, buy-and-holds, flips, or something else?

If you want good cash flow but amazing appreciation potential and rentals you want to hold for the rest of your life, I would definitely consider Columbus!

Cities in the San Francisco Bay Area are charging vacancy taxes because they're seeing people with a lot of capital just buy up properties to hold onto for appreciation and not renting them out.

Happy New Year all!   Now is my time to get rolling. No more lurking for me. Looking to build my community up and down I95 corridor in North Carolina.
