In Palm Beach it’s not about reaching the end goal; it’s, about cherishing the experiences we encounter along the path.

I’m surprised you haven’t encountered any of these yet.

Is this accurate, as I have not encountered anything concerning 12 month seasoning periods, especially for cash purchases.This really hurts my turn-around and portfolio building timeframe if this has become standard (which I have not heard of a 12 month seasoning period during any research nor listening to any podcasts).Thanks!

If you encounter specific problems as you pursue acquiring a house hack deal, don't hesitate to post them in the forums. 

We've contacted Zillow for assistance, but the issue has not been resolved yet.Has anyone encountered a similar situation or have any advice on how to proceed?

All agents are incentivized to sell it's a transactional business and because you are just starting out and in a low barrier market you will encounter many new agents who need to eat and pay for their gym membership and car that month.   

@Justin WilliamsIt sounds like you're encountering some challenges with obtaining financing for a multi-family property due to your credit score.

Just as encountering a faulty vehicle does not render all cars unreliable, the saturation of the 500 ft2 studio and 1-bedroom market in Tulum does not diminish the investment potential of other segments within the region. 3 bedroom + properties are still yielding solid returns (double digits).

Following this period, if interest rates decrease, I intend to refinance the property, transition it into a rental, and repeat the process by acquiring another property to serve as my primary residence.I'm curious if anyone has attempted a similar strategy and, if so, what pitfalls or challenges they encountered along the way.

Another big problem we encounter more often than not is when they're swearing on Jesus Mary Joseph and everyone else they are deposit ready, then having some reason why they can't pay the deposit;  or trying to do half of it now and of course the other half never materializes.
