Purchase price: $19,750,000 Cash invested: $5,925,000 Sale price: $35,500,000Ashton Oaks is a 168-unit garden-style community built in 1987 and is situated on 6.78 acres with 129,924 SF of net rentable area.

Almost half the size of the greenville one, BUT much nicer area, closeby to lightrail and BRICK. no parking though... needs a little renovation in the second floor kitchen and painting, but overall turnkey also.has washer dryer. backyard garden and shed.returns are somewhat similar although if i am realistic can squeeze out quite a lot from the west new york one. not so sure about the greenville one. 

Don’t buy in the district of the worst school, look for low maintenance qualities that will attract applicants (dishwasher, laundry in the house, hardwood floors, garden, open floor plan), try to stay close to transit, schools, and services.

@Daniel Shchyokin if you can door knock I'd target the area between Walker and Spring Garden. 

@Matt Nico and @Ruben Correa I have been investigating Orlando in general and outlying towns like Winter Garden.

The Wealthy Gardener is another good one and like Rich Dad it also has a story.

Hey Jason,I have a few rentals in Carroll Gardens and Park Slope that don't produce very good cash flow in relation to their current values. 

That emotional connection can drive buyers to pay more happily for a home they fall in love with.Perceived ValuePerceived value is a fancy way of saying how much something seems worth to you.When it comes to real estate, it's all about how much a house or property feels like it's worth.Imagine you're looking at two houses that are similar in size and features, but one of them has a beautiful garden and is in a great neighborhood.Even though both houses might cost the same to build, you might feel like the one with the garden is worth more to you because it makes you happy and you see it as more valuable.This feeling of value can vary from person to person.Some folks might be willing to pay extra for things that are important to them, like a big backyard for their pets or a fantastic view.Others might not care about those things as much and would be happier paying less for a simpler home.

You might not see immediate returns in the form of high rental income.Instead, you're willing to wait patiently, knowing that your investment will become more valuable over time, just like that sapling growing into a towering tree.To succeed on the Growth Path, you'll need a long-term perspective and the ability to weather market fluctuations.It's like being a patient gardener who nurtures their plants and watches them flourish over the years.Ultimately, whether you choose the Growth Path or the Cash Flow Path in real estate investing depends on your financial goals, risk tolerance, and investment timeline.Both paths can lead to success, but it's essential to align your strategy with your unique circumstances and aspirations.Just remember, when you choose the Growth Path, you're betting on the future and the potential for substantial rewards down the road.Which Path Is Right for You?

I already purchased a property in Winter Garden few months ago, bordering Windermere and am very happy with it so far.
