My theory is as global warming drives people away from the coastlines (it is already driving insurance companies away), there will be a migration back to the Midwest where the weather isn't an extreme and prices are more reasonable.

I know I would not want to do 80 deals in an year for a whopping 80k... seems like a low returns for them.. granted apr is spectacular but then again you need those funds liquid so your drag on funds ( from lender perspective ) can be pretty great..

Some people want regular and some people want spectacular.  

@Noah Yashinsky You can definitely cash flow, but I don't think it's anything spectacular right now.

But once you go down that slippery slope 99% will end up making it worse and then crash spectacularly. 

In any case, I thing your investment are pretty solid and should earn you something between a decent return all the way to a spectacular return depending on the local economic situation.  

New into the real estate game and looking  specific lenders you know of that does hard money lending based off arv instead of luv , would be spectacular if you can as well pm some you would refer thank you :) 

The other investments I made during this period all did spectacularly.

I'd go back again any time.Also, something to consider on the investment front - when I was vacationing in Panama last year, I rented a stateroom on a sailboat and sailed around the San Blas islands, which were also spectacular.  

I'm biased towards the spring, but fall is pretty spectacular weather-wise.
