*Buy and provide a golf cart as an additional fee (which I view as you best chance prove the value and cash flow from the asset)*Do not buy a golf cart, but simply provide info to a local golf cart rental.

Yes appreciation would be nice, and some cash flow too…but it seems you need to simply your investment approach to paying off high loan balances with the least amount of doors.

There’s nothing worse than a lender that over promises and then can’t deliver (sometimes they don’t even review your file before giving you the pre-approval letter and assuring you that all is well, charge you for the appraisal and let you go through inspection and pay for that out of pocket too, then their underwriters get involved and discover some reason they can’t process the loan leaving you high and dry).

If you have any advice, potential deals, or simply wish to connect, please don't hesitate to reach out.

At some point, I will get my real estate license to get access to the MLS and to qualify for seller financing, but I am also debating whether I should get the license before getting a real estate job or simply before I am ready to start buying my own properties. 

To some its simply rehabbing SFRs or MFs.. others its building commercial buildings.

Some areas will not cash flow simply because of how the market is.

If the landlord does win the lawsuit for damages, the tenant may simply not pay it.

Hello Kyle,There are lots of things to consider, and there are lots of different types of Zoning for residential.For example you could be zoned residential, but the minimum lot size could be 1 acre, and you are buying 1 acre, in that case you wouldn't need a developer, you would just need a builder.For example, lets say you have 5 acres and a perfect rectangle property, that has an existing street that runs the long ways of the property so you won't have to put in any streets, you will simply need to get with a surveyor, figure out your minimum lot widths from zoning, and file with the municipality to get your property subdivided into lots.Once you have subdivided lots, you can either sell the lots outright to a builder, the cleanest transaction.Option 2, you could try to partner with a builder so you can split the profits, most builder's will want you to guarantee the loan, and still charge a build fee before profit splits.Option3, you can hire the builder, obtain the financing, and keep all the profits.Option 4, you could do any combination of 1,2, and 3.
