I’m all done playing those games.    

If there is no difference between Carrot and WordPress when it comes to SEO and ranking on GOOGLE then it might make sense to go with WordPress for a long-term play. 

Thanks I hadn’t done a short term flip in a couple years and getting back into the game here in riverside county. 

REALITY CHECK: THIS BUSINESS IS HARD.Wholesaling and buying houses off-market is a sales game—and sales is brutal.

I'm interested in flipping, and short-term rentals at the moment to build good cash flow, then pivot into more of a buy-and-hold/appreciation play 10-15 years from now.

It is an appreciation play right now.

I'm also finding that a single large repair can wipe out a whole year of income, making me wonder if cheaper cashflowing properties is the right play. 

I'm curious to know if the same sort of game was being played here by what was supposedly another management company. 

Obviously it is always a good idea to respect folks time, but find someone who also has skin in the game, investing where you are investing, can talk about their experiences, and also has built a network of folks who can support you after the transaction as well. 

Happy to chat and get a game plan in place for you or answer any other questions you might have.
