Your operations are always spot on.

Instead of paying market for spot lots I create my own lots  and capture that equity.

There are some good food spots around here.

It doesn't take long to learn how to spot a good deal.6.

While many gurus glorify the strategies they’re selling through courses or books, methods like BRRRR aren’t easy and can put you in a tough financial spot if you’re not careful.

two things I have learned.  1,200 is a sweet spot for demand, and if you do have a large unit of 2,500 get a couple of them zoned for auto. 

1) 20% down will allow you to do a conventional investment loan, but you will have to either:- Qualify with the new payment + your current payment- Lease the property out, allowing the lender to use 75% of the monthly rent to offset the mortgage (confirm with a lender).2) You could also do a DSR 20% down loan, but the interest rate will be much higher than conforming rates.3) If less than 20% down, you could:- Do a 10% 2nd home loan as long as the new property is at least 50 miles from your current home or near a qualifying vacation spot (confirm with a lender).- Do a 5% down conventional mortgage if you plan to rent out current home and live in the new one for at least 12 months.

The minimum hold we tell our clients is 2 years with the sweet spot being 5-7 years depending on the property. 

Seems like we're in really similar spots in terms of what we currently manage and where we want to go.

If you dont have the tools and skills to DIY and get yourself out of a tough spot then you can be SOL if the deal goes south.
