.: @Patrick RobertsThat's a lot of words to say you're advocating tax fraud since there may be a low likelihood of getting caught... 

Hi Even,I don't know about DPA and Grants but I do have a great program with only 3 precent down and low interest rate.

Wholesaling is a great low cost way to make a lot of short-term cash, but it does not build long-term wealth.

Conservative and low risk. 

Then the prices lower towards the date and you end up booking at a low price or worse just being vacant.I think manually pricing your STR'S is a much better approach.So many people are looking for the next cool software app to buy a subscription to.

Reach out anytime agreed. i am unfamiliar with his markets but $220 does seem very low. a sf room mate/ BRRRR strategy seems more practical

a lot of people will poo poo this, but I also live in a market where cash flow is low, property taxes are high and properties are expensive (which is a relative term).

The most important thing on your first deal is to keep the risk low.

for me, the ones that cashflow the most are the ones that I bought with 3% long term debt, they were new (low maintenance) and they are in high appreciating areas(just a bonus but does not impact cashflow).

To be more specific about what i'm looking to do: My 1-2 year goal is to employ the BRRRR strategy with SFHs and Condos by buying distressed / highly undervalued properties that need work (preferably all-cash) in low crime areas with strong rental demand, renovate them within budget (again preferably all-cash) and get them rent ready before refinancing them at the highest ARV possible.
