Flips are great but I really want to get into the larger rental game 4+ units.

If you are not going to rebuild they will settle at actual cash value/market value minus the land.There are policies out there that will settle at cash-out replacement cost but they are rare and typically offered by higher end insurers for higher end owner-occupied homes.Every insurance company uses software to determine the estimated replacement cost of a home.  

This is a long game that requires persistence.Make the money when you buy.

Real estate’s a marathon, not a sprint, so keep your eye on the long game.

The bad news is that there is no part of the game that's inexpensive, and much of it involves fair chunks of time for approvals. 

Play the long game, you can start small and build, just don't go to zero. 

It can be done but I would probably also diversify it in private lending or another type and just not NPN's.I think reality people need to understand is the days of 25%+ returns are only happening if the operator is on top of their game but stuff is being sold and priced out at 15-20% and that should be the expectation.

Out-of-state investing can be a game changer, especially when you're looking for markets with strong cash flow and growth potential.I work primarily in the Indianapolis market, where we focus on new build duplexes that offer solid returns.

I warn people about these every chance I get. now that I found this site and other ways to get software that is the same on the back-end for a lot less I am going to redirect people instead of just warn them.it just seems like they all are just a cult type recruitment. like fortune builders, their line was literally if you give us all your money, you wont need any of your own anyway you use other people's money. guess what, no one will do a deal with you if you don't have any money of your own. no one wants to swim with the kid that obviously can't. and no one wants to entrust money to someone that looks like a financial idiot. due diligence in everything you do.

The neighborhood is desirable, so renting it wouldn't be difficult but it would be niche because of its size (4/3, office, dual living rooms, game room).
