How come data driven method did not see that construction costs will only rise?

Some of it is due to his questionable methods of getting reviews on Bigger Pockets.

I'm working on part of an investment strategy and I'm curious about having one more valuable property that, either through a large down payment or BRRR method comes in at 70 LTV, versus using creative financing to have multiple less valuable properties at high LTV.So, assuming all properties would be at just above break even, is it better to have one $600k property at 70% LTV, or four $300k properties at 95% LTV?

We have done tons of non-occupied flips too (fast method).

The article below sheds light on how DSCRs come into play with the BRRRR method.

Are you using the BRRRR method or buying turnkey?

And maybe it's not all or nothing for a given method, sometimes a combination of various financing tools is what wins.

And there is definitely ways to structure a sub to deal to protect yourself a little better as a buyer but the problem is and will always be that the lender isnt in the loop with this and can call the loan at any point which puts a lot of risk on the sellers willing to do this method and the buyers who are investing money into these deals.

You can take a deep look at the deals and get an idea of the kind of variety you'll see and come up with your own due diligence method (that meets your unique situation).

It’s refreshing to see someone leveraging both traditional methods and community engagement... it’s a solid mix.
