We have 3 boys who are actively in sports and the location of the house just doesn't work out for us. 

It sounds like Aloha Capital is selling “shares” which are not secured by real estate and would be considered “unsecured loans.”

If selling properties, a 1031 exchange defers capital gains taxes by reinvesting proceeds into another investment property, while Opportunity Zone investments can defer or eliminate capital gains tax over time.Long-term rentals should be held in an LLC for liability protection and tax efficiency.

I always like seeing new concepts for housing that can be used for various populations.

Not if you buy the worst lot with the slowest selling model.

Quote from @Jeffrey Bourque: Hello All, I am new and this is my first attempt at purchasing a property with the intent to create monthly cash flow.The property: Triplex Listed at $140,000 - Total monthly rent income $2,150 - Tenants want to stay and are all willing to sign new leases for 3 years - 8 beds 5 baths and 3,500sqft livable space on a 4,800sqft lot - Heat and electric paid by tenants and water trash paid by owner $180 month - I have managed to talk the selling price down to $105,000 with a kick of $10,000 for closing and commissions so $115,000 all in - Building is in fairly good shape according to pictures and questions but have not done a inspection yet - some general maintenance repairs are needed according to the seller but nothing that seems to bother the tenants. - Taxes are on the higher side at $6,000 yearMy Numbers: $115,000 putting 20% of my money $23,000 and finance the rest with total expense of $1,834Monthly expense numbers: Future Maintenance 13% $273 - Vacancy 5% $105 - Property Insurance 5% $105 - Property Taxes 23% $500 - Property management 10% $215 - Office/Travel/Legal 4% $84 - Mortgage 26% $552 - Monthly Cash Flow - $316 per month or $3,792 per year so Cash on Cash = 17%I think this looks like it is a deal worth doing and I also believe I can bump the total rent up by $50 each tenant which I think make it even better.

You may have heard that staging your home properly can make a big difference when you sell your house, but what exactly is home staging, and is it really worth your time and effort?

👋It’s awesome that you’ve already started diving into the calculators and podcasts—those are great resources for anyone just getting started.Since you’ve had some rental experience already, I’d love to hear what you found most challenging about owning and selling that property back in 2017.

The house build  course is pretty straight forward  and walks you like a baby through  every step from finding the land and entitling it to building and selling.
