That said, I'm grateful for the alternatives you present--you're keeping the bottom line in mind, so I appreciate your help in exploring options that achieve the bottom line for the investors. 

By targeting better locations, leveraging Section 8 for consistent cash flow, and balancing low acquisition costs with high guaranteed rents, you've achieved impressive results like $1,100 in net cash flow on a single property.

Negotiations focused on securing the property at a favorable price, enabling us to achieve a profitable margin in a highly competitive market without requiring additional renovations.

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

Best regards,Yaroslav @Yaroslav Shtogun what about a slight adjustment to the property line and executing a no build easement so that you're achieving the purpose of the setbacks?

Congrats on achieving a comfortable financial situation.Condos are actually riskier than single family rentals. 

Dan, Investment HELOCS are extremely hard to achieve considering they are not DSCR underwrites. they are more traditional conventional qualifications.

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

Hope you are able to achieve your goal!

Real Estate I believe has trumped all that in the sheer amount of focus and time I have had to give it to achieve what I consider a well rounded understanding of it on a basic level.
