BRRR makes sense on recycling your seed money, and I'm thinking this is the way I would like to go - however, the realist part of me questions how realistically successful this strategy would be if I'm not only out of state, but also investing out of country.

As far as refrigerant (freon) he his referring to R-22, complete phase out of this not until January 2020, currently contractors can still buy "recycled R-22" with no problem, it's expensive though, and as far as a new compressor, there is never an issue with finding a replacement.

I am trying to find financing for deals while using the Brrr method, so I can recycle my cash and don't have to come out of pocket.

I was using personal cash that I wanted to recycle, you could be in trouble with hard money rates for a year of seasoning

There is a recycling company one block away and a waste water treatment a mile away.

I know I'm milking this for all it's worth.. but if you have the time to talk through that (or someone else reviewing the post!)

I grew up in a small Oregon logging community with government cheese, powdered milk, and 90% of my clothes were hand-me-downs or garage sale specials.

What do they know if your Walgreens purchase is for milk (for the office) or for printer ink. 

They might not apply to your market, the time in the RE cycle, etc.
