Hello, Everyone I currently have a duplex under contract in West Palm Beach,FL and I am going back and forth on whether to wholesale the deal or keep it to try and do my first buy and hold deal I normally wholesale my deals but I am interested in doing my first buy and hold as well, I don't have any experience with it at all I have been trying to use the rental property calculator but I keep getting a wide spectrum on cash on cash return not sure if I am doing it right since it's my first time using it.

You will see the whole spectrum from a soft sell to a hard sell.

On the other end of the development spectrum, I met with JK at Storybook Realty.They offer a hybrid turnkey business model whereby the investor purchases the property up front and they will manage the required upgrades and subsequent property management.

It was a quick way to pick up homes on the cheap but the quality and aesthetics spanned the spectrum.

Property value always goes up if you think and do things on a long term spectrum.

More anecdotal information on the upper end of the spectrum. 

Not sure what end of the spectrum you're looking in, but most of the success stories I've heard in this niche are in smaller towns rather than in large ones who compete with the big companies.

There are two sides of the spectrum in Vacation Rentals. 1) Those who are buying a second home for their family or themselves to retreat every few months and those who consider this a business and never see our rentals because it's making us money.

Considering a spectrum of liquidity (where real-estate and cash are at opposite extremes), it appears you're implying that the degree of liquidity also matters.

When in doubt start towards the higher end of your rental-payment spectrum and lower your price accordingly or for a certain renter.
