Rehabs are such a rewarding way to get into real estate—that's how I started too (flips)!

Builders are not charitable organizations to deliver below market cost houses).

That way you reap the rewards.

On the day of closing, we drove Anna and her son to finalize the sale, then immediately took them to the airport to catch their flight to Las Vegas.The most rewarding part of this experience came at the airport when Anna hugged us, crying tears of joy.

Any time someone makes a recommendation and they are rewarded if someone else believes and acts on their recommendation, story, etc. it is by definition a “biased” recommendation.  

Expanding into the US residential market can be a rewarding opportunity, especially with your focus on cash flow and capital appreciation.Given your interest in properties that yield positive cash flow while also offering capital appreciation potential, I'd like to introduce you to a financing option specifically designed for foreign investors like yourself: Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loans.

Your project is quite interesting, and balancing risk with reward is key.

There is no good investments, or bad investments.You as an investor need to decide what investing strategy works for you, define your criteria, understand if your criteria is possible in the market you are looking in, understand the risks/rewards of your critera, and then execute the purchase.While some agents are heavily knowledgeable about investments, most have zero clue.

However as many of you know in business the bigger the risk the bigger the reward.

I think for the average person that is not going full-time into real estate, investing or property management, having a paid off asset is probably more favorable to them than continuing to own more properties especially if they find their current work to be rewarding, or they like what they area doing outside of Real Estate.
