With the highest CoC ROI of about 4%, this would be the biggest risk.

To a degree I lucked into the 2 buildings so my biggest question is the title.

As a note... there are properties on the island that are "luxury" but per building department officials my house is the largest residential house on the big island with the biggest residential pool.  

Our biggest goal is build relationships in the Chicago real estate community, getting referral is just a nice bonus.

Biggest downside is rate will be higher at 80% vs 75%. 

@Charley GatesCurious - 3 months in - what have been biggest learning aha moments and where have you found best content ?

Hey @Jonathan Snider, well the biggest downside for me is there is zero value in those domes/yurts in the long term.

The biggest draws for investors are not needing to provide income docs (no W2, tax return, paystubs etc needed), DTI doesn’t matter, you can close in an LLC, and not all lenders report the debt to your personal credit (so it doesn’t affect your credit score or DTI for future conventional financing).

One of the biggest misconceptions I see from beginners (I'm guilty too) is that you set an ambitious goal & then search for the magical city or the MLS listing for a property that matches your goal.Best motto I heard from my mentors "Great deals are created not found." 

Biggest difference from CA are much more favorable landlord laws, taxes do NOT reassess on the sale, and still high appreciation due to land constraints, proximity to Lake Tahoe, tech and manufacturing job growth, Tesla continuing to expand, etc.
