I've been following the build-to-rent method for some time and even lived in one for 2 years.

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

It will be very difficult to cash flow in Austin using traditional LTR methods unless you put down a huge down payment.

Purchase price: $50,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Single family brrrr

After that I bought another SFR to BRRRR and then is when things started to go wrong.-  The SFR had huge foundation issues.

BRRRR, Fix Flip, taxes, deal analysis, market analysis, marketing, financing, etc.  

The bottom line is that there is a very small positive financial gain resulting from utilizing this method.  

Maybe if I was younger it would make more sense, but staying with the method I've used over the last 10 years will only become more refined and efficient.

Twenty of the the homes were BRRRR and two were full conversions from single-family to assisted living. 

I suspect, as more and more leasing-related disputes are occurring involving credit cards, the companies have already figured out their method of handling these claims.
