Let's say it's $100 a month and the cost to install a fence is $3,000.

For those who’ve used it, what strategies or sources have worked best for you when covering the difference between your loan and the total project cost?

One of the things I'm trying to figure out is if I'm better off getting a few lower cost properties or on higher priced property. 

While living in a high-cost area can present challenges, it also opens doors to creative strategies, like investing out of state or leveraging partnerships.

We’re considering whether to do mid-grade updates and rent it soon if we can find a good next property though acquisition and ongoing costs are a problem.

That's three months of mortgage and utilities, the cost of flooring, and the cost of painting.

Every market will vary due to labor costs. 

However, co-living allows you to acquire properties with as little as 0%-5% down, drastically reducing the amount of cash required.Instead of needing $100K+ to buy a rental, a co-living strategy lets you start with a fraction of the cost while achieving higher returns.3.
