@Brian Burke Your more of an honest man, than a salesman.It’s great that (IMO) the most trusted Syndicator/Operator on here is saying to diversify across other assets.Brian you are in it for the long game and that is why people trust you.

The rental game is funny in that you want to responsible enough to always make rent, but not successful enough to easily afford buying a house.

It's definitely easier to find a cash flowing property in Midwest but I am of the opinion that cashflow in real estate keeps you in the game but appreciation is where you build wealth.

Can’t watch a show or game without seeing Booking.com ads.

My strategy is the long game, buy and hold, build equity and cash flow down the road.

Use next 4-6 months to learn by listening, reading and watching how the real estate investment game works.

"It's a numbers game".Ohh and please ignore all the other people here on biggerpockets asking the exact same question dealing with your exact same issues complaining that they all are getting the same horrible results.

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Francisco AvancenaThere are specific lenders who will do land dealsBut of course not as many as traditional real estate.The key will be skin in the game - typically for land because it is less liquid than a home the lender will want to have a lower ltv on the deal I fund land flippers currently in  CO FLA WA ID MT NV AZ OR TX SC GA VA  one thing about land though LTV is lower and RATES are NOT the same as typical HML rates are higher for raw land but its a specialty niche and a business that I grew up in..

Hopefully, 2025 will reward us all who have stayed in the game. 

He doesn’t believe in the blame game.
