In my opinion, house hacking is the easiest way to get into the RE game with the lowest money out of pocket...plus if you throw in a renovation loan like the 203k or homestyle, you can boost your worth quickly!

Values can change dramatically within tiny distances in a city.

Our neighborhoods and properties change dramatically.

And, regardless of which party takes the White House, the housing shortage will not change.The only way to boost supply is for builders to significantly increase home construction.

Your expense ratio remains flat, and therefore doesn't really create much value in the deal.Compare your 2% rent and expense assumption to what most syndicators underwrite: 5% rent growth after an initial renovation bump; and 2-3% expense growth; and you get vastly different outcomes.As to whose assumptions more closely tie to reality is to be determined, but if you used assumptions more in line with what syndicators are using, I think you will find the return projections narrow dramatically, if not flip to SFRs.  

If you can get a 4 unit and a basement, that would be ideal and create major cash flow and equity creation, plus you can not worry about a property manager and boost your yield.You can get a whole bunch of cheap debt which your tenants will pay down over time, massive appreciation and potential cash flow if you buy right. 

I think it was a double whammy when the fed rate was boosted from nothing to 5-5.25 and the fed was also selling a bunch of the bonds they had bought before to drive mortgage rates down. 

Whether you’re trying to find off-market deals, build a pipeline of motivated sellers, or scale up your operations, there are some game-changing tools and methods that can seriously boost your efforts.I’m really passionate about helping others take their business to the next level, and I’ve seen firsthand how these approaches can deliver results.

These days, ads have expanded dramatically and can occupy a significant amount of “eye real estate.”

This allows you to show your ad again (at a fraction of the cost of search keyword clicks) and “remarket” to visitors who stopped by your site but didn’t convert.Remarketing is a great way to boost conversions and create the impression that your brand is “everywhere” online.And if a seller is processing various investors he is talking with, he may be swayed again to leave his details if he encounters your site again.
