I own 2 STR units in condotel buildings in Waikiki, both are doing very well.

Make 2025 the year to build those relationships.Cheers! 

Sometimes going to local investor meet ups after investing for 15 years and building a large portfolio is a little disappointing.

Being a part of the featured agent program has helped generate leads and build relationships from those leads. 

I was interested in this type of deal because I was living in the area for another year and needed to build equity as well as dip my feet into the real estate market.

Demo'd it and build a new 6,200 sq ft single fam. home (modular construction).

This is a great way to build experience and get some quality rental properties under you while keeping your liquidity up to go find additional properties.

Explore build-to-rent communities or mixed-use developments in emerging markets.

I learned this when I bought 12 new builds for GOZONE tax bene's really nice brick homes in best part of town but values just did not rise enough so by the time i had to change everything out and pay sales commish it was break even at best..

You are well on your way tho to wealth building.
