You're absolutely right—positive cash flow from rentals can vary significantly depending on factors like property costs, financing, and the ever changing market conditions.For real estate the challenge isn't just accumulating properties but creating a framework that builds net worth more strategically and sustainably.Cash Flow can be generated in many ways, my intention was to better understand the investor mindset and their approach, if they wanted to share.Based on your example, if using conservative calculations at $100K/door, you would pay $20M for access to $40K/month.

However, if you could buy a 5-bedroom home and rent out four of the bedrooms, then it's probably worth the trouble.

Hey @Katherine Lewis, I have always felt this was a tougher row to hoe overall.It's not that it couldn't work, but the juice might not be worth the squeeze.If you go all in you have to do it for the long haul.

Historically, the average days on market (DOM) for rental properties only increases by about 6 days during November and December.

You'll need something like 125 units netting $200 per door to get there, that's about 10 million worth of multifamily in today's money, so you'll need about 3 million in down payments.

if it is serious I have a couple of questions for you 1) what is the last syndication that you have seen that did not project a majority of the return from value increase?  

It's not that different from a normal rent increase.
