I’m an independent and licensed real estate broker in Tulum, and after analyzing the performance of numerous properties, I can confirm what Mike is saying.

My client bought a 22 unit building and used this strategy and walked out of closing with a check for $800k to perform the rest of the renovations, paid himself back his already expended rehab costs and his entire down payment.  

I wanted to be absolutely sure I had complete agency and that I knew how to perform my own analysis over various situations.

It’s about staying compliant, keeping tenants happy, and ensuring your investment performs at its best.

I've noticed properties that are 2 bedrooms or less tend to perform better on this platform. 

Some areas still offer strong appreciation potential along with steady cash flow, and when working with trusted lenders, you can find competitive rates in places like Memphis, Little Rock, and Oklahoma City, which tend to perform well on both fronts.

There are many cost segregation specialists to choose from, so it’s important to perform due diligence.

Sometimes the market changes or can't absorb the rents that they want, so they issue concessions to make it appear as if it's performing as intended.

Petersburg for over 30 years, I can attest that the last two big hurricanes caused significant damage, but they were the first in a long time.Condos and townhomes tend to perform well, especially if they're located on the Intracoastal Waterway or within 3-5 miles of the beaches.

It's important to be on this platform, even if it's not performing right now.
