As someone who occasionally works with these investors, I always try to emphasize the challenges that come with real estate like managing renovations, dealing with tenants, and navigating market fluctuations.

Successfully acquiring, renovating, and selling multiple distressed properties can significantly boost your returns, but it also comes with its own set of challenges.

Challenges?

Blanket notes are not de-duplicated currently when they are recorded against multiple parcels.Blanket notes are detected, but aggregating them is currently a challenge that has not been solved to our satisfaction.

I'm a contractor based in Maryland and DC, so the renovation aspect is well within my expertise, having done numerous projects for other developers and general contractors.However, I'm facing a challenge when it comes to choosing the interior design elements, such as bathroom tiles, colors, sizes, fixtures, etc.

First, I’m not really seeing enough cushion in certain popular areas for investors to realistically hit a 30% profit margin.

Challenges?

@John Paul Palace their bggest challenge is finding competent PMCs to recommend to their clients.That's what most of the negative feedback here on BP is about them - which is UNFAIR as they're selling a rental property, NOT PMC services.Recommend you do your own due diligence on PMCs before just going with their recommendation.

Meanwhile, my current carrier increased their estimated rebuild cost from ~$1.6M to ~$2.6M to justify their premium hike.Most other quotes I received estimated replacement costs between $1.3M and $1.7M, but finding a carrier willing to underwrite this policy has been challenging.

@Keetaek Hong I have a lot of clients who are facing the same challenges but they understand the long game and that it's imperative to build a portfolio, With that lowered interest rate I mentioned you are looking at 30% down and including PM fees will typically have you around break even or barely positively cash flowing.
