My goals - livable income from property within 5 years, efficient velocity of capital (reuse money through refinancing etc), learn as much as I can, have fun, more time with family.

PROS: zero dollars of existing money           Increase velocity of money            She doesn't have to deal with 2 major flips              Great cash flow and in position to acquire more                propertyCONS:  going to take sweat equity (Not really a con for a newbie)           multiple moving parts           Goodluck!                             

But I’m conflicted on where to start in terms of building a strong foundation in my portfolio while still having enough velocity behind my money to grow.Should I start with a SF rental and hold for the 1031 deferred (4 greens and a red type strategy) or go after Tax / lien sales to flip/sell in the short term until I can afford a multi family property.

People have talked about it here before "velocity banking".  

Combining some concepts from velocity banking with investing could lead to a pretty sweet scenario!

I wish I could remember which of our BP colleagues coined the acronym VOM (Velocity of Money), but that seems a great description & something worth striving for.

We've put crazy velocity to our investing money.Short Term Rentals: The numbers, how I got started, and my first No Money Down dealHey y’all, I’ve been posting a little recently sharing some of our success in short term rentals (STR) on AirBnb, VRBO, Homeaway, Booking, Travelocity, etc.

@Kazi Islam, this is called "velocity banking" and can work.

Point well taken, I understand it's meaningless to this conversation, it's just my own sense of velocity 

Of course it would be okay should the gains be there, but the velocity of your capital in this scenario becomes extremely low.
