.- Try to raise the rent and the tenant will give you a list of all the maintenance issues they want you to fix. --- They will offer to fix them in exchange for lower rent, but ask yourself, if the tenant has been living there for 25 years, why isn't everything fixed already?

Your best bet is a Fix and Flip loan (HML).  

Investment Info:Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

.- Buy someone else's problem: can you fix their problems?

Quote from @Chris Seveney: Over the past quarter, I have seen around $1B in defaulted fix and flip loans - many of these from new lenders since 2020 and more of a "tech platform".As we all know, the intersection of tech and real estate investing has brought incredible innovation, especially in hard money lending.

Also deciding if you want one that needs work or is fixed already.

Quote from @Anthony French: I’m relatively new to real estate development, having completed only one fix-and-flip project.

My name is James, and I have completed 6 fix & flip properties.

However, longer-term bonds (1-5+ years) are subject to interest rate volatility:If rates rise, bond values drop, potentially leading to negative net returns.If rates fall, bonds appreciate, but gains are capped by their fixed coupon rates.While Treasuries provide stability, they offer limited upside and carry hidden risks for medium- to long-term maturities.Why Real Estate Is a Stronger Option in Today’s MarketMultifamily real estate, particularly value-add properties, presents an asymmetric risk-reward profile that Treasuries simply cannot match.

some like to fix and flip some like to hold for cash flow, figure out which you like and take it from there  Monthly...so guess rentals.
