While this isn’t ideal from a transparency perspective, it’s a foreseeable outcome when the regulation doesn’t directly impact flipping economics.The Bottom Line: While AB 968 may promote transparency in theory, its real impact will likely create more complexity and hurdles for sellers of distressed properties and newer market participants rather than significantly altering the business strategies of established flippers.

I've known investors to get burned because they didn't do the math. 

You have an interest rate that is unlikely to be available for another century, Hold the asset and let the tenant burn down the mortgage.

In short, getting the place restored was akin to remediating damage from a natural disaster.In the trash and belongings abandoned by the tenant, he also left the OM for his healthcare real estate endeavor, nasty-grams from the IRS about his personal taxes, and collections letters from several creditors after him.I got burned here and so did my property manager.

Self promotion is much appreciated but the preference is given to first-hand referrals.Thanks in advance and happy investing!

Our tenants have been insurance burn outs ( their house burnt down insurance is paying the rent) to those building Custom homes that will take 12 to 18 months..

Quote from @Robert Burns: I'm looking seriously at expanding my REI business include buying, fixing and flipping REO properties!

They promote a lifestyle versus how to actually do something. 3.

There might be demand, but oversupply in certain areas, like Orlando, is pushing prices so low that it becomes impossible for some property owners to break even, let alone turn a profit.Agents promoting STRs as "good investments" without considering the current market saturation, high operating costs, and potential competition do a disservice to buyers.

I've seen investors use credit cards with a 0% APR promotion, business loans, but most times they have someone in their network privately lending them those funds.
