I'm trying to analyze a potential flips in Newark, Ca (East Bay in general).

It’s great to have you here, and it sounds like you’re in a fantastic area with lots of potential.

It has greatly lagged Huntsville and Madison in growth and appreciation, and should not be viewed as having the same growth potential whatsoever. 

My biggest question when I was researching all the programs was "If these people are so successful at what they do, why are they charging so much for all of this and always trying to upsell?" 

Close to the University of Virginia and a large research hospital. https://www.airbnb.ie/rooms/851008521978902877?

So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

I've done a lot of research into this and believe this is for me, but am getting some roadblocks when it comes to funding requirements and my buy box not aligning.

Q1: Great points, we'll need to have a detailed operating agreement that outlines an agreed approach to all potential outcomes.

Smart investors first focus on finding quality properties—such as those in thriving areas of Brooklyn or potential neighborhoods around Manhattan—and then reverse engineer the process by improving management, optimizing rental structures, or enhancing facilities to make it worthwhile.

Make sure to research lenders, get pre-approved, and calculate your potential ROI before bidding.
