I found myself in a similar position to you about 10 years ago.

The investor who bought this home owns an asset that is cash flow positive from day one and one that will benefit from all 5 profit centers of rental property investing for many years to come.

Business Growth: As I’m focusing on multifamily, industrial, and retail assets, any advice on how to position my company to stand out in a competitive market?

It is alarming to witness someone in a prominent position within James' mentorship program engage in such unethical practices.

Yes you are in a GREAT position to buy property but still need to keep improving your RICE.  

I have first hand experience as an investor which has been positive. 

So, your focus may need to pivot from high rental cash flow to little to no cash flow as a rental with an appreciation upside.I would recommend taking your $150K to $200K and securing a solid equity position in something that will cover its expenses and maybe provide a small cash flow, but then is poised to appreciate nicely over the course of the next several years. 

It's an estimated cash on cash return given current rental rates subtract expenses assuming 7% interest rate, 10% management fee, 5% repairs, 5% capex and other expenses like mortgage, insurance, tax. it's a estimate to tell you what properties to analyze vs ignoreyou can see the are pockets of negative returns as well as pockets of positive return. this is to supplement the data @Devin Conley provided

As title says, looking for some first hand experience, positive or negative; for working with mynd.co.

But a quick google says Jessica Miranda has had the position since April.
