@Rene Hosman Generally, Reasons for Land Swaps are to: - Resolving zoning conflicts - Acquiring strategically important properties - Consolidating land holdings - Avoiding costly legal battles - Achieving public policy goalsWhen I was a Planning Commissioner projects would discuss land swaps for larger development projects to make sure the community impact was greater (typically gaining conservation land for us) than just allowing a rezone to be approved without public benefit.

This strategy would preserve more of your equity and make reinvestment more efficient.You could use the exchange to buy multiple properties in diverse, high-yield markets, achieving your goal of increased cash flow.Reassess the Property’s Cash Flow:Before selling, explore ways to improve the cash flow on your current property.

that's $100K+ in cash PLUS a solid plan to achieve for that return. 

In playing with the numbers a bit, I'm seeing a trend of atleast 2% rent to price and (ideally) < 7% mortgage rate needed to achieve a decent cash on cash rate.

@Nicholas Dilloncongratulations on your success so far. a few comments.1. is BRRRR still achievable in 2025? 

For the mostly passive San Diego RE investor, you will need to be patient to achieve worthy return.  

I’ve developed a Comprehensive Investor Report (CIR) for a property in Palm Coast, FL, designed to be transformed into a luxury rental asset while serving as the foundation for a scalable asset management strategy.Here’s a quick snapshot of the deal:Property: Red Birch Lane, Palm Coast, FLCurrent Value: $350,000+Mortgage Balance: $165,000Current Equity: $185,000Investment Required: $177,500 (for luxury upgrades and optimization)Projected Monthly Rent: $4,500 with 2% annual increasesTarget ROI: Full 1.5x ROI for investors achieved in 9 yearsLuxury Features: Smart home automation, designer finishes, professional-grade kitchen appliances, and more.I’ve also structured a capital distribution plan with a waterfall approach:8% Preferred Return for investors.Full Return of Capital to investors before profit splits.Post-ROI, a 20/80 split (Investor/Management) ensures long-term alignment.

You could probably just go buy a different investment property and achieve the same returns.

If you can stretch the budget to $250-275k, you can get a significantly nicer property / in a better area and still achieve the 1% rule
