This approach will help preserve your operating capital.

I did all of the work myself and know the ARV's in the area pretty well so that helped. this is like my 8th deal and I analyzed deals for like 3 years before I bought my first property so that has gotten way easier.

Happy to help, @JJL Garner.

It was a humbling experience, knowing he chose me over his previous agent.Success in this business takes time, but as I tell my kids, honesty, integrity, and accountability will take you far and help you sleep well at night.Best of luck!

Thanks for your help!

With that in mind, I’m considering purchasing four rental units over the next four years to build a stream of income that could help supplement my retirement by age 68.The challenge I’m facing is that the deals I’ve come across so far don’t make financial sense.

It's the only way you'll get a good idea of what the market is really doing in your area, and keeps everyone competing to find the best coverage, deductibles, and premiums for your specific account.Hope this is helpful.

Most PMs, especially the well established ones, will not always flex for specific clients like this but it could be an option.hope this helps.
