Crypto markets have been even more erratic. 

As long as it's equity, it's like Crypto - a mere passing thought in someone's whimsical mind or perhaps a cypher (number) on a sheet of paper.

I don't do ETF's or REITS or futures or Crypto, etc.

BP coins this as a "house hack". 

Flipping and buy and hold are opposite sides of the coin. 

Some enjoy the risk of crypto, some enjoy the risk of managing flips and short term rentals and some prefer larger assets which typically insulate risk to a degree with expert teams.

I flipped a coin to decide between Rentecdirect and Buildium when I was starting out, and am now so used to RentecDirect that I don't plan to switch, but based on the continued positive feedback I hear about Buildium that is the software service I would try next if I was switching.  

Rent is the obvious one, but if there is coin op laundry, or any other source of income, include that as well.

The flip side of that coin, of course, is that 43% of our new sales this quarter will close without a tenant in place, so it’s not a guarantee that we find the perfect person right away, but we are working hard to make sure each and ever client has a responsible, clean, employed tenant in place as soon as possible.5.Ok back to the ROI calcs.
