I've always been about building something of high quality that is sustainable and like you said I think I'd prefer a little less cash flow in an A class neighborhood.

I used to sell Salesforce to REITs across the United States and this is what I've learned:For your needs - a CRM with a power dialer and SMS capabilities - there are a few options you might consider:Podio: This is a popular choice in the real estate community, especially for wholesalers.

@Michael Almand, for a full line-by-line breakdown and scope of work, my preferred contractor will charge about $250 to walk the property but will credit it back if he and his team are given the job.

It’s important to ensure you’re comfortable with these risks and consult a financial advisor.If you choose to use a HELOC, consider traditional financing or private loans as alternatives if you prefer not to risk your home.As for your first rental, markets in the Midwest and Southeast offer great opportunities with turnkey properties that are tenant-ready and appreciating.

The only drawback from this I see besides needing the cash to fund it, is for an investor who prefers to get all their cash invested back from a deal will more than likely not get everything back at the end especially if they contract everything out ( the lowest quote I got for the ADU was about 60-70k but that was just an estimate and could have been more).Average rent for ADUs in my area:1 bed 1 bath- $1000-$13002bed 1 bath- $1300-$1600Something tells me they can go for a little bit more because I had tenants bidding for my unit within the first week of construction.

lots can go into this somewhat simple question and most of it is personal preference.- you'll want to define "best", and what that looks like for you as a success.- How much money do you have to spend?

Are you a hands-on type that can make improvements to a home or prefer to contract out work?

Many investors analyzing deals 24/7 prefer transparent, predictable costs that align with their ROI goals.

Don’t focus on buying or selling right away—just connect and build trust.Both brokers and sellers prefer doing business with those they know and trust.

I have enough in my US accounts to buy a property outright but I'd prefer to buy with leverage.
